UDT02 Direct Links and Wildcard Links Subtasks

Use the UDT02 Direct Links and UDT02 Wildcard Links Subtasks of the Manage UDT01S to manage UDT02 links.

Each subtask table displays the linked items of the current UDT01. Different column headings and data display in the table, depending on whether you are using Direct or Wildcard links.

Note: The Direct Link or Wildcard subtasks display conditionally, depending on how link options are set on the UDT options tab of Configuration > General Controls > Configure General Settings. For example, if the UDT is configured as a direct link, the subtasks related to Wildcards do not display, or conversely, if configured as Wild Card, the Direct Links subtasks do not display.

The New function also performs differently, based on the configuration setting for the type of link.

UDT02 Direct Links Subtask

Note: If your version of Time & Expense is co-deployed with Costpoint, the Direct Links subtask is read-only, because modifications must be applied directly to the appropriate area within Costpoint.
