Note: This operation is available only to users logged in at the Corporate site.
Un-hide an SDS when it has come back into use at one or more sites (or was hidden by mistake). After an SDS is un-hidden, it can resume its role as a locally active SDS, and can be accessed by local site users without special Corporate access points.
An un-hidden SDS can also be archived at Corporate if it is unlikely to come back into use. For details, see Archiving SDSs at Corporate.
To un-hide SDSs:
Starting at the Corporate Archiving page (How do I get there?), do the following:
1. Click the Hidden tab. (This tab appears to Corporate users only.)
The tab shows all SDSs that are currently hidden. The data shown by the various columns is self-explanatory, with the possible exception of the Part Comp. column, which shows any Corporate parts in which an SDS is a component. (For details, see Part Components.)
2. Do any of the following to organize the list to your preferences:
● To select how many SDS appear on each page of the tab: Select the desired number in the Items Per Page menu in the upper right.
● To navigate between pages: Use the Page menu and Previous/Next buttons in the upper left. (These appear only when the tab shows multiple pages of SDSs.)
● To sort the SDSs by a specific column: Click the desired column header.
3. Examine each
SDS you might want to un-hide; to view one in detail, click its view (
)
icon in the Common Name column.
If you decide to un-hide an SDS, select its check box in the far left
column. You can also select all and clear all check boxes on the current
page using the Select All and
Clear All buttons (respectively)
in the lower left.
Note: If you change any of the display's pagination or sorting (using the tools described in step 2), this automatically clears every SDS's check box. Therefore, you might need to address one page of SDSs at a time.
4. When all SDSs you want to un-hide on the page are selected, click Unhide Selected.
The selected SDSs are un-hidden and moved to the Ready to Archive tab of this page. Each can now be locally un-archived at any site where it is currently assigned, assigned to new local sites, and/or archived at Corporate.
5. To examine and un-hide another page of SDSs, return to step 2. When you are done, click Done to return to the Application Administration page.
