$TXT Created by MULLER,RICHARD at MNTVLL.FO-ALBANY.MED.VA.GOV (KIDS) on Thursday, 10/12/06 at 11:09 ============================================================================= Run Date: NOV 06, 2006 Designation: DG*5.3*728 Package : DG - REGISTRATION Priority: Mandatory Version : 5.3 SEQ #644 Status: Released Compliance Date: DEC 07, 2006 ============================================================================= Subject: Block FileMan Edits of Means Tests Category: - Data Dictionary Description: ============ There are sites that are editing two fields using FileMan to allow tests to be modified which should not be. There fields are: PRIMARY INCOME TEST FOR YEAR (FIELD 2) and SOURCE OF INCOME TEST (FIELD .23) in the Annual Means Test File #408.31. Some of the MT Reversals in IVM 2.9 are due to manual editing of these records at the sites. The only way to block the users from editing these two fields is to change the data dictionary to make the fields un-editable. Depending on the environment at your site, additional routines may be created during installation. These are not core routines sent with the patch but rather a by-product of the changes made to the data dictionary in support of DG*5.3*728's DD changes. If your environment does not require such routines, none will be created.
