Documents that are configured to manage lists are list documents or list management documents. The List Edit window is used to create these documents and to manage their related lists.
After you create a list document, you can create a snapshot of the list document, which creates XML and XLS files with the data in the database at the time that the snapshot was made for all the objects included in the list. If your configuration supports it, you can then publish the snapshot to the data warehouse.
For more information about configuring list management documents, see List Management Console.
The list editing functionality can be configured to save and manage a list of objects as a document. The list is configured to display any number of instances of some type of object, along with a specified set of properties of that object. From this list, view in the List Edit window, you can view the list and data, modify the data of existing objects, create new objects, or terminate or delete object, depending on your configuration and your user permissions. In addition to features for managing object data, this environment may include two additional buttons for saving the list as a new list document in the database or for attaching the list to an existing list document
Once you have customized the list of items that are displayed in the List Edit window, you can save the list to a list document. You can create a new list document or attach the list to an existing document.
See List Edit window for details about using the List Edit window.
The type of list document available varies based on how your administrator has configured
your system. The name of the type of list document to which your list is attached
is reflected in the option on the List Edit window.
If you have changed the list in the List Edit window, you are prompted to save those changes before attaching the list to a list document.
