Capital Planning Browse - WebTMA 7

Path > Transactions > Capital Planning > Capital Planning Browse

The Capital Planning Browse window gives you a more comprehensive search for Capital Planning records than using the Records pane on the related windows. The Query window consolidates Capital Planning Browse functions in one place and includes four radio buttons:

  • Renewal Program

  • Audit

  • Work Element

  • Deferred Work Order

Select the desired radio button to query data based on that topic.

Buttons at the bottom of the Capital Planning Browse window change depending on the option selected. All windows include the Remove Selected, Export Current Page, and Export All. Moreover, the record Number on each line of a window is an active link. Click to open the record in a separate browser Tab.

If you select Audit or Deferred Work Order, the window includes a button to Create Work Element and push the selected records into the Work Element table.
