How can I show the Delete option for Admins?
So I have a logbook with the following config:
[Elog]
Admin User = me, otherguy
Deny Change Config File = otherguy
Restrict edit = 1
Restrict edit time = 4
Menu commands = List, New, Edit, Reply,Last Day, Find, Config, Help |
Hi,
We have a fire preventive team at our company doing periodic inspections of our various corporate buildings.
If they find a deviation they want to register this somewhere.
So I thought E-log would be nice to use in this case.
The way the fire preventive team inspection works is building by building.
All the buildings has numbers.
So they want to be able to select a buildingnumber in E-log and filter on open,ongoing and closed records when they do their inspections.
And they also wants the filtering to stay on that choosen buildingnumber despite if they delete or add new entries.
I know that you can have a default startview in E-log but this view is static.
Is it possible to do this in E-log?

Hi Scott,
yes, every user can export entries using the "find" command.
Just select the export format in the first line
Export to:
 ⇄
Detect language » English
⇄
Detect language » English
I often use the XML Format, but CSV is fine if you just want to import the entries to some spreadsheet program.
I was shocked to find out that this feature has not yet made it into the documentation?!? But it is that simple to use that there is not much to document.
There is even an "Import" command, to reimport entries from a file. But this is tricky to use: if you have fields of type date or datetime, then you have to convert those fields in the proper format.

I tried EXPORTING logbooks as .csv but have not been fully successful. Elog seems to only export the data entered for various fields with the exception of the text field.
Here is an example export from my logbook (used to track simulator problems), I would like to also export the TEXT field so it can be used by my managers in excel...but as you can see there is no entry for "TEXT" fields...
Thanks in advance!
