TechTipTECH TIP
Can I delete all of my retired gages at the same time?
GAGEtrak is designed to prevent record deletion, so if you need to delete more than one gage, you must delete them one at a time. Whenever you delete a gage record, you are also deleting all other information concerning that gage. You will lose all of the calibration history, all of the issue tracking (usage) history, association with calibration standards, attached documents, relationship with parts, any MSA studies, etc.

WARNING: Before you delete a gage record, it is wise to check your Quality Department's record retention requirements; you may be required to retain records for a certain number of years after you no longer use the gage. If you are planning to delete several gage records, it is a good idea to make a backup copy of the database using the current date as a part of the file name. That way, if you ever need to look up historical information about any of the gage records you deleted, you will be able to do so. Please keep in mind that if you did this and you decided later that you wanted these gage records brought into your current database, that it would be very difficult and time consuming to get this information back again.

CHANGE GAGE STATUS OR CREATE A NEW STATUS: It is not necessary to delete a gage to remove it from the calibration report or make it inactive. All you have to do is change the gage's Status.

GAGEtrak comes with six status descriptions to get you started, only two of which are included on gage due listings by default (Active and Employee Owned). You can add as many more as you like and specify their inclusion in gage due listings. In the case of a retired gage, you could change the Status to 2-Inactive or create a new Status, such as 7-Retired.

To create a new Status in GAGEtrak 7:
  1. Navigate to Setup -> Status IDs.
  2. Below the six default records is an empty row of fields. In that row, type 7 in the Status ID field, type Retired in the Status Description field and leave the Include in lists of due gages checkbox unchecked. (You will notice that there is now another empty row of fields at the bottom of the list to continue adding new descriptions.)  
  3. Save the new record by either clicking the pencil icon that appears to the left of that record or clicking the Save in the Ribbon. 
  4. Navigate to the Main Records -> Gages -> Information tab and the Status drop-down list will now contain 7-Retired.

TRIGGER CODEtriggercode
What it is, why you need one and how to get one

A trigger code is a unique code number required to register your GAGEtrak license. If you don't obtain a trigger code within 30 days of installing GAGEtrak, you will receive a message from GAGEtrak saying that your trial period has expired. Obtaining a trigger code will remove this expiration date.

 

You may also require a new trigger code after reinstalling GAGEtrak because of a workstation upgrade or if GAGEtrak is moved to a new workstation.
