Using the DCR browser

The DCR browser can be opened in a number of ways.

The DCR browser displays a list of DCRs, one DCR to a row with a number of information columns. More info

Clicking the arrow at the start of a row adds an indented section showing a simple audit trail for the DCR. Clicking the magnifying glass icon at the start of this indented row opens the row in a separate window.

Organising data in the browser

To widen or narrow a column, hover the mouse between column headings until it displays as a horizontal line with arrows at both ends and then drag to the required position. See example

To re-order the data within an individual column, click the column heading. The small arrow within the heading indicates whether the data is sorted from the top or the bottom. See example

Depending on the level of detail that you chose in the search panel, you can group data by the information in each column.

To create a group, drag a column heading to the area above the headers. The DCR data will be re-displayed within the group. See example Repeat to add more groups.
Each group level can be expanded/collapsed by clicking the arrows next to each level. To expand or collapse all the data, right click in the area above the report and select Full Expand or Full Collapse from the popup menu.
To remove all groups and view data in a classic tree view style, right click in the area above the report and select Clear Grouping from the popup menu.

Editing a DCR from the browser

Right click on a DCR anywhere in the row and, depending on your user permissions and the status of the DCR, you can select from the popup menu to:

Re-raise the DCR (you need the 'Create DCR' permission to do this)

Respond to the DCR

Close the DCR (you need the 'Close DCR' permission to do this)

Edit the DCR text (you need the 'Create DCR' permission to do this)

Receive the DCR
