Display Value Conventions

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The display of values follow several conventions:

Black: information, this value cannot be changed here. It is typically a calculated value or input at some other point, in BA for example.

Some data may be editable in one location and not another. Some information may be editable under some criteria, such as "User" selection, and not otherwise, "Auto" selection.

Blue: this value can be changed by the user at this location.

oNot bold: number has not been changed from default value.

oBold: number has been input by user, or no default value is available so number must be confirmed by user.

Red: this value could represent a design problem since it is outside the limits expected by the program.

Yellow: this value could also represent an area of concern since it outside the limits checked by the program, but not sufficiently to warrant a red flag.
