Understanding Online Edits

115

View differences between current transaction definitions and
transactions with pending edits.

In a running configuration that uses online edits, you cannot:

Modify configuration properties.

Modify error logging properties.

Add new, modify, or delete existing enterprise connectors.

Modify enterprise or control connector properties.

Use any control connector except FactoryTalk Live Data.

Modify database connection properties.

Add new, modify, or delete existing data objects.

Modify a starting or stopping event definition.

Change data point names or modes (scheduled, unscheduled or
device-scheduled).

Delete data points.

Delete transactions (although you can disable them).

If you have a running configuration with pending edits and then stop it, you cannot

make any further changes to those items with pending edits until you cancel or
assemble the pending edits.

Learn More About Current and Pending Edits

When discussing online edits, you need to understand the difference
between ―how data points and transactions are defined in the running
configuration‖ (current) and ―what the changes will be if you assemble‖
(pending).

A current edit reflects how a data point or a transaction is currently defined
in the running configuration.
