Attribute

Attributes are properties that can be set on objects, nodes and organization groups and are defined per category and type.

The attributes are used to give more detailed information about for example a mobile phone or a cost center, and to give the possibility to find them by searching, sorting or filtering on any of the attributes. This is very useful when you use Pro 9 as a register to keep track of different types of devices.

When creating the attributes, you can select between different control types, such as date, integer, checkbox, drop-down list, text field or accessory, depending on what is best suited for the type of information to be entered.

Attributes can be set as mandatory, i.e. if you have a mandatory attribute for extension object this attribute has to be defined for all new extension objects that are created and to be able to save any changes to an existing extension object.

The attributes can be grouped in attribute groups to give a better overview, and permissions can be set on the attribute groups.

When the attributes are created, they can be set to the objects, nodes and organization groups in three ways, manually, by an import or by an AD/HR integration.

Attribute - history show a history record of former attribute value, start date, end date and changed by on objects, nodes and organization groups. Attribute - history is find in the edit object, edit node and edit organization group.


Example: For the object type Extension, the attributes Model, Room and Socket are defined. By using these attributes for each extension, you can keep track of what telephone model is used for the extension and in what room and what socket the extension is located.
