-Who Is Logged In:
In a client-server system,
this selection allows checking for other operator
workstations that may be connected to the
database.

This is useful when performing database
maintenance tasks, since other operators and PCs
cannot be connected to the database.
For details on database maintenance, refer to "System
Maintenance Tasks".

"Auto-Start/Stop Panel Communications" feature
for a single-PC system.

-Check Database for Conflicts
(
≥
V3.3

:
This
shows a list of conflicts between the software
database, and settings stored at individual
sites/panels.
This feature is especially useful for large systems that
may communicate infrequently with individual sites,
where panels can become out of sync with the
software database.
Note:
Listed items pertain to the
topic/form that contains a conflict, and the ID number
of the specific
account
(NOT the item/user ID).
For details on using this feature, look up "Check
Database for Conflicts" in the index.
