Working in Record Mode 

Use

Record mode is used to manage the records of any table in the MDM repository, including the main table, regular subtables, and object subtables.

When you first start the MDM Data Manager, it places you in Record Mode with the connected repository’s main table selected as the current table. You can change tables at any time by selecting a different table from the current table drop-down list.

Procedure

To switch to Record mode:

Click the Record Mode toolbar button, or press Ctrl + 1, or choose View ® Record Mode from the main menu.

To specify the current table:

Click on the drop-down table list or press F4, and select the table whose records you want to search, view, or edit.

Alternatively, choose View ® Table from the main menu and choose from the cascading menu of tables.

If you want to simply review the records in a table and wish to avoid any accidental changes, you can put the MDM Data Manager into read-only mode by clicking on the Read-Only toolbar button (shown at left), or by choosing View ® Read-Only from the main menu.
