Managing Decision Reasons

Decision reasons provide textual description of reasons for passing or failing welds in the Array Explorer software.

To modify the list of reasons, select the Reasons node from the navigation tree. In the main view, you are presented with two lists of reasons to fail and pass a weld. Click the Add button to add a new reason, then type in the testing method (e.g. RSWA) and the description of the decision (e.g. Undersized weld). It is allowed to have one of the fields empy. For example description for passing a weld is empty by default.

To delete a reason, select one or more reasons from the list, then click the Delete button. To select more than one reason for deletion, use the Ctrl or Shift keys on your keyboard.

To edit a reason, select the reason from the list, then click the Edit button, modify testing method and description properties, then click Update.

Reasons in the Array Explorer software will appear in the same order as they are shown in the Designer’s reason view. You can reorder reasons in the list by dragging items with the mouse.
