Maintain Measurement Entry Templates

You can create templates for drill logs, dip entry and backfill entry.

The drill pattern type specifies which template is applicable for drill patterns of that type. See Maintain Drill Pattern Types.

For templates for printed sheets, see Maintain Report Templates.

To create a measurement entry template:

  2. Enter the Sheet Name.

    • For Entry Only—If checked, the table column is blank, ready for data entry, even if a value already exists in the database. If unchecked, data already in the database displays but only until the user enters an overriding value for any editable property in the table row (that is, for that hole).
    • Read Only
    • Required
    • Required Abandoned
