Tabs and WindowsShow LogsNew Window

Logs of Orders and Tasks can be viewed for example from the JS7 - Order History, chapter: Order Log ViewJS7 - Task History, chapter: Task Log View etc. Users have a choice of how to view logs:

  • New Window: a new browser window is opened when displaying log output.
  • New Tab: a new browser tab is opened in the browser when displaying log output.
  • Download: log output is downloaded for viewing with a text editor on the user's client device. Which text editor is used is decided by the associated mime type text/plain or by browser settings. This option is preferably used for a larger log output, for example > 10MB, which will take more time to render in a browser window or browser tab than to be displayed using a local text editor.

Note that any views displaying log output offer a download option for the output, using the  download icon, independent of this setting.


Show DocumentationNew Window

Users have a choice of how to display JS7 - User Documentation:

  • New Window: a new browser window is opened when displaying the documentation.
  • New Tab: a new browser tab is opened in the browser for displaying the documentation.
Object ViewShow sub-folders and folder contentsSub-folders and folder contents

The tree navigation in views offers a choice of what will be displayed when selecting a folder:

  • Folder contents: Elements only of the selected folder are displayed.
  • Sub-folders and folder contents:  Sub-folders and elements are displayed.

Show Files immediately in File Transfer viewuncheckedThe JS7 - File Transfer view displays current and past transfers. Users have a choice of displaying files subject to transfer when opening this view or to only display files when selecting display details in this view.
Audit LogEnable Reasons for Audit Logunchecked

The JS7 - Audit Log keeps track of changes to objects, for example when a workflow is stored, is deployed, when an order is added etc. Users can be asked to add a reason why they perform such an operation. Reasons can be selected from a list and can be added individually. This setting works as a voluntary option for individual users. However, JS7 administrators can enforce use of reasons when modifying objects as described in JS7 - Settings, chapter: JOC Cockpit Settings.

Log ViewUse time zone for log timestampscheckedJS7 Agents can be operated in different time zones. This means that each Agent will create log timestamps corresponding to its time zone, for details see JS7 - Time Zone Support. This setting specifies whether timestamps in any log output are to be converted to the time zone specified in the Time Zone setting described above. Alternatively the original timestamp will be displayed.
Controller ViewCurrent ControllercheckedIf the JOC Cockpit is connected to a number of Controllers then most views offer the option of displaying information for the currently selected Controller or for all Controllers. For example, the JS7 - History view allows history entries to be displayed for the current Controller or for all connected Controllers. The Current Controller option specifies whether the data shown in a view should be limited to the current Controller by default. Users have the option of modifying this setting for each view.
Inventory ViewSuppress tooltips for Inventory objectsuncheckedThe JS7 - Inventory offers a number of configuration items for Workflows, Jobs etc. When this option is unchecked then tooltips are activated when the user holds the mouse for >0,5s over the label of a configuration item. This setting is a good choice for users new to JS7 who are looking for explanations. However, experienced users might want to suppress any tooltips.
