How does the Create Child Record tool work?

[rondlg]

The econservation module Create Child Record tool was developed in 2021 to assist with the creation so child condition check records.

Purpose
Create a new child conservation record. For example if you do subsequent condition checks after a baseline condition check has been carried out.

Backend Logic
From: JIRA#258

There are currently two outstanding mandatory registry settings that need to be filled when creating a new child that are not covered in the spec.
emu:Group|Default|Table|econservation|Mandatory|InfConservator_tab|true;You must enter a record date.
(note the message is incorrect in your registry entry)
kwebbink:Group|Default|Table|econservation|Mandatory|InfRecordDate|false;You must enter a record date.
There is no code behind these fields on the 'Child Tool' to check for the existence of a Transaction Associated Event (like how EMu checks for a manual addition). Instead it is done when the new conservation record is saved.
What this means is that no matter what you have specified in the 'Child Tool' Associated Event, on new conservation record save (after hitting Update on this tool) code will check whether the Associated Transaction has an Event and if so add that one to the new conservation record (as per functionality for Request 1 and Object tab see JIRA#249 for more). Meaning that if you entered a different 'Child Tool' Associated Event to what was on the Associate Transaction record, then the 'Child Tool' Event would be overwritten with the correct one.
If the 'Child Tool' Associated Transaction did not have an Event, then the one you specified in the 'Child Tool' Associated Event would be used (as per functionality mentioned above and JIRA#249)
If you know a transaction has an event, you only need to specify the Associated Transaction in the 'Child Tool'.

Conditions:
The selected record MUST have at least one attached catalogue record ie ObjObjectsConservedRef_tab (Object) is NOT NULL.

• RelIsParent (Is Parent?) = Yes

Fields to autofill from the Selected Record which will become the Parent:

• ObjObjectsConservedRef_tab (Object)
• CheRank (Rank)
• • Default to “Subsequent”
• InfRecordType. (Record Type)
• • Default to “Condition Report”
• InfAssociatedEventRef (Associated Event)
• • If the Transaction has an event you do not need to also fill in the Associated Event field.
• InfTransactionRef (Associated Transaction)
• InfOtherReason (Other Reason)
• InfConservator_tab (Conservator)
• InfRecordDate (Record Date)
• • Default to today’s date
• CheDateChecked0(1) (Date Checked)
• • Default to today’s date
• CheNameRef_tab(1) (Personnel Involved Name)
• CheRole_tab(1) = “FMNH Representative”

Sticky values ie those that should remain in the tool for the next time you open it in the session.

• CheNameRef_tab(1) (Personnel Involved Name)

After Update:

• Open on the NEW Checks tab.
