The Equipment browser lets you work with the Equipment table, creating new entries and editing existing ones. To open the Equipment browser, select Units —> Equipment from the menu. This opens a window that contains the following:
- Building: The building where the equipment is located.
- Equipment: An identification code for each piece of equipment.
- Description: A one-line description of each piece of equipment.
- Edit: Lets you edit the equipment entry that is currently selected in the list.
- New: Creates a new equipment entry. For more information, see Creating and Editing an Equipment Description.
- Clone: Creates a new equipment entry, copying most of the information for the new entry from the (old) entry that is currently selected in the list.
- Delete: Deletes an existing entry. Note that all associated information about the equipment is removed from MainBoss's database and cannot be restored. Contrast this with declaring a piece of equipment obsolete, in which case the equipment is removed from the list of active equipment, but the equipment information is retained in the Obsolete Equipment table. For more information, see Obsolete Equipment.
- Print: Prints one or more entries. For more information on printing equipment entries, see Units.
- Search: Searches for a particular record in the table.
- Done: Closes the browser.
For more about browsers in general, see Browsers and Editors. For more about records in the Equipment table, see Creating and Editing an Equipment Description.
