FactoryTalk Transaction Manager User Guide
116
A pending edit reflects the new definition of a data point or transaction after
you have changed and saved it, before it has been assembled. Pending edits
do not affect the currently running configuration until they have been
assembled. After pending edits have been assembled, they replace the
current definition and become the new current definition. In the Transaction
Definition view on the main FactoryTalk Transaction Manager user
interface, notice the Current label for those transactions that do not have
pending edits. For transactions with pending edits, there is a pending row
and a current row.
Assembling Pending Edits
The process of making the running configuration aware of the changes made
to data points or transactions is referred to as assembling pending edits. You
must save pending edits before you assemble. If you attempt to assemble
pending edits before you save them, a warning message displays.
You can assemble pending edits from the following:
 Main FactoryTalk Transaction Manager user interface.
 FactoryTalk Data Point dialog box.
 Pending Transaction Definition dialog box.
 Pending Edit Alerts dialog box.
This process may affect different types of pending edits based in the dialog
box from which you assemble. If you have questions about what will or will
not be assembled, refer to the online help.
