PCM Status

All PCMs must have a status and a Default PCM status must be set up in System > Code Setup > INI Settings > PCM . When a PCM is created, the status applied will be the default PCM status. The status can be altered if necessary.

The PCM Status will determine if:

  • The PCM can be deleted
  • The PCM can be inserted into Bookings

In PCMs, the status is generally used to indicate the type of PCM being created.

On initial entry to the PCM Status node, any existing records will display.
