Information
- PLANTA project distinguishes between functional ID and technical ID.
- They are both generated automatically when a project, proposal, idea, or program is created and are equal at that point.
- The functional ID is visible in various modules and can be changed if required for certain reasons.
- The technical ID must not be changed. It is not visible in the module and remains unchanged even if the functional ID is changed.
Change functional ID
- In the header bar area (in the Subprojects module in the box of the required subproject), click on the button with a pen on the right hand side.
- The Do you really want to change the functional ID system wide? dialog message will be displayed.
- Confirm it with Yes.
- A dialog window containing an input field is opened.
- The functional ID needs to be defined uniquely in the system. If you enter an already existing ID and click outside the field, the The required object ID is already used message will be displayed and the value will be reset.
- Enter the new ID here.
The ID will be changed throughout the system by default (global Change functional ID globally project parameter is activated by default) hence e.g. also in already existing status reports.
