Example data entry
Just an example run (if you finished the installation allright)
From the main screen, choose "Location" .
Choose "New"
Position on the cell with the question mark (row: name / column: New Value), enter "myoffice", press enter so that the cursor goes one row down; you see the "my office" entry marked dark red as it is not saved yet.
Enter the remark "test", enter to move down.
Enter as building value 1, even if you have not multiple buildings (yet).
Enter as floor a 0 for the ground floor, or 1, 2 or whatever value fits your floor.
You can skip the image file, of if you configured your picture directory and also have a valid file there, enter the filename.
Skip linkto for the moment; it might contain a link to the record id of a superior location (e.g. for sublocations).
Just put a 1 in active, to make it selected in other activities.
The next fields are "metafields", and contain no data that you can enter. Press "Save".
If all goes well, you see the data you entered now published in the column "Current Value".
Some meta-data is shown as well to fresh up your memory: created at and by, updated at and by.
And you see an entry on the right in the list of all the records. You can select the records in that list.
Congratulations, you started using Gitin !
Change data
If you want to correct or change data, choose the record on the right, and enter the new value of a field in the column "New value". Press "Save" to see it being updated.
Delete data
(humm) - that is not implemented yet. I suggest you set the active value to 0 to hide the records.
If you really want to remove the records from the database, you can eaysily do so on the selection of "active=0" on the mysql commandline or with a tool like phpMyAdmin.
