About the Topic Codes Form
The Topic Codes record is where a topic code is defined. It contains information about when it is active, what entities connect to it, and what records are linked to it.
Attachments Tab
The Attachments tab lists any files that are relevant to the Topic Codes record.
General Tab
Name
The Name field contains the name of the topic code as it will appear on any Topic Code tab.
Description
A brief description of the topic code.
Parent
The Parent field is used to structure a parent/child relationship among the topic codes. The Parent field links to the Topic Codes service.
Status
Active or inactive are the topic code status choices. Inactive allows the Topic Code record to exist but not appear on a Topic Code tab.
Type
The Type field identifies whether a topic code is a code or a category (a category can have associated sub-topics identified using the Parent field on a sub-topic's record).
Value Type
The Value Type determines how the topic code will appear on the Topic Code tab. Options include: Yes/No, Multiple Choice, Numeric, or Text.
Default Value
This field is implemented in Aptify 5.5.2. The Default Value field specifies the default value for a topic code that is displayed when the topic code is activated for the first time. When the Value Type field is set to Numeric, Text, or Multiple Choice, the default value can be either no entry (blank), or a value of the same value type. That is, the default value for a Numeric value type would be a number or text for a Text value type. For a Multiple Choice value type, the default value can be one of the values defined for the topic code.
Start Date
The date the topic code goes into effect.
End Date
The date the topic code is no longer available. When the current date does not fall into the range specified by the Start and End Dates, the topic code does not appear on a service's Topic Code tab.
