Inline Editing

With the EA Connect Days 2018, we introduced the Inline Editing feature.
The following section will describe briefly what you are able to do with Inline Editing.

👍

Available for everybody

This new feature is available for every user in a workspace with sufficient rights.

Enable Inline Editing

In the Inventory of you LeanIX workspace, you are able to activate Inline Editing in the top right corner by clicking on "Edit".

Edit Fact Sheets

Once you activated the Inline Editing you are able to edit Fact Sheets out of the inventory list.
By simply clicking into a field you are able to update information over multiple Fact Sheets without having to open them all.

🚧

Not all fields can be edited using the Inline Editing

Greyed out fields cannot be edited. For more information please see the "What fields can be edited" section.

What fields can be edited

Some fields cannot be edited for multiple reasons.
Calculated fields like the Display Name are generated by certain rules and cannot be edited.
Relations are not available yet.

Save changes

Once you made changes to Fact Sheet in the inventory the total count of changes appears on the top left corner of the inventory table.

All the changes you made are highlighted in a yellow bar.

If you are sure that everything is correct you are now able to save the changes by clicking the Save button in the top right corner

Saving not possible?

A red "X" will appear at the beginning of the line on all fields if the change cannot be saved.

If you click on the "X" you will see the reason and you can correct it.

🚧

Change a Tag Group in "Mandatory" afterwards - make sure that all applications have a Tag

For Admins: If you set "Mandatory" for a tag group afterwards and you want to make changes in Table Edit now - make sure that all applications have a Tag of this mandatory tag group.

If not, all your changes/ changes from Member cannot be saved.
It would display the following error message:

CONSTRAINT_VIOLATION

• /tags, Fact Sheet "X" is not tagged with tag from mandatory tag group "Y"
