Items Only for Change Order Records

[Gene.R]

Currently the Records tab>add>find dialog defaults to Files in the "look for" dropdown.

It should allow some administration configuration for items only records for change orders,

another possibility would be to add a default for items, or remeber last used.

I have also had more than one client ask for this. They use item control and require that their users attach items, not the files themselves to the CO, so that the releasing of the items is controlled through the CO closure.

Thanks,

For those who have established an item lifecycle workflow through change orders (that was the only option a few years ago), the ability to hide or make secondary the file selection option would be helpful.  As soon as files made their appearance, they became the default when adding records to a change order.

Or at least let us choose the default.  I have people after 6+ months who still add files instead of items because they don't change the dropdown.

I agree, I have requested this also.
