Many pages in the OnCore application display in view-only or update mode. In view-only mode, you can view data but you cannot make modifications to it. In update mode, the fields on the page become editable.
Both view-only and update modes are controlled by assigned roles. One role allows read-only access to a screen, and an additional role must be assigned to allow the user to update data on that screen. The access you receive will be determined by the work you are assigned to complete in your position.
If you have the role to update information on a screen in OnCore, an update button will appear in the lower-right corner of the page. In update mode, you can edit data in text fields, select different values from the drop-down menus, and select or deselect options.
Once you are in update mode, several additional buttons appear at the bottom of the page. These buttons typically include the Submit, Clear, and Close options.
Submit: Saves the data entered on the page; the page remains in update mode.
Clear: Restores all fields to the most recently saved values; it does NOT erase all data on the page unless this is the first data you input.
Close: Returns the page to read-only mode; any data not saved by using the Submit button will be discarded.
