A Species is a group of similar fish or shellfish that can freely interbreed. When recording the species on an ADF&G fish ticket, the specific species code must be indicated, as it is very important for management purposes. The Specie ID is part of what makes a Fish Ticket Item unique (Specie + Condition + Disposition + Sold Condition + Grade). They are assigned to Fish Tickets Items and can be used in the calculation of Ticket Taxes and Ticket Premiums and assigned to Fish Ticket Price Lists. The purpose of the Specie List View is to manage all the available codes, descriptions, default Purchase Accounts. This master file comes pre-loaded with the Species as assigned by the Alaska department of Fish & Game. From here, users can add new records, edit ID's and Descriptions of existing records, and activate/inactivate records.

Species can be manually managed or can be auto-added as Fish Tickets are imported from eLandings provided the (Fish) Ticket Class is configured to 'Allow import of Missing or Inactive Ticket Items and Components'.

Toolbar Icons	Description
Column Filter Show/Hide	Toggles between displaying and hiding a filter row in the grid under the column headers. The filter row will be displayed by default if the Quick Column Filter is also implemented in the page. When enabled, this will allow users to type in text to filter by a specific column.
Delete	Deletes the selected record(s). When clicked, users will be prompted with: "Are you sure you want to delete the selected records?". Click "OK" to confirm, or "Cancel" to return without deleting. Note: If a record is not selected prior to clicking the button, the message “Please select a row to delete.” will be displayed. _{WARNING: Records cannot be recovered once they are deleted!}
Excel	Exports the contents of the grid to an Excel file that will automatically download. The contents that export are those that are visible to the user. Therefore, if the user has filtered the view, or excluded columns, only the contents in the grid will be exported.
Favorites	Clicking on the star icon when it is an outline, adds the page to the 'My Shortcuts' tab and fills in the star. Clicking on the star icon when it is filled in (solid color), removes the page from the 'My Shortcuts' tab and returns the icon to an outline. Users must log out and back in before the pages will be visible in the 'My Shortcuts' tab.
Group By Show/Hide	Toggles between displaying and hiding a row in the grid above the column headers to enable grouping by one or more column(s). Once displayed, users may drag and drop column headers to group by a specific column. Once the grid is grouped by a column(s), a subtotal footer row will display in the grouping for columns that have a page footer total.
Help	Opens the online WIKI help page for the current page.
New	Opens a new blank record for data entry.
Quick Column Filter	Used to filter across all columns in the grid. When the user types text into the Quick Column Filter text box, the grid's Filter Row will be automatically hidden. The text in the Quick Column Filter text box automatically replaces any existing Filter Row filters. The results of the data immediately refresh as you enter text.
Save	Saves all changes made on the page.
Saved Layouts	Displays the column layout lookup and related icons. This tool allows users to select a previously saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, forget/delete a layout and/or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to the layout, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Save Layout icon and save the changes to the column layout. The visibility of the Filter Row is also saved with a saved layout. The new layout can also be set as the default. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific). Default layouts can be removed by clicking the 'Set as Default' button again when the current default layout is selected. Please note that existing saved grid layouts will display the Filter Row as hidden by default.
Fields	Description
Checkbox	Used to select one or more records.
Inactive	A Yes/No field used to identify if the Specie is Inactive. If set to 'Yes' then the record is "Inactive" and will not be included in look-ups. Setting this to Inactive only prevents the record from being manually assigned to new transactions or master files, it does not prevent transactions containing this value to be posted. 'No' values display as blank in the grid. This value is always editable. Database Field: ERPx_APSpecie.IsInactive
Major Specie	A text box to add/edit the parent specie associated with the Specie ID. This is used on reports and inquiries to make it easier to group data. For example, rather than selecting each Salmon Specie ID one at a time you could use Major Specie to select Salmon. This defaults to blank but is not required. This field must be <= 100 characters. Database Field: ERPx_APSpecie.MajorSpecie
Purchase Account	The GL Account that defaults as the Purchase Account on a Fish Ticket Item. This defaults to blank and is not required. If blank, then the Purchase Account will need to be manually assigned to each Fish Ticket Item. This field is always editable. This lookup contains a blank value, the current assigned value, and a list of all the 'Active' GL Accounts Database Field: ERPx_APSpecie.PurchaseAcctSK
Report Group	A text box to add/edit a parent group for one or more Specie ID's. This is only used on custom reports to make it easier to select groups of data. This defaults to blank but is not required. This field must be <= 100 characters. Database Field: ERPx_APSpecie.ReportGroup
Specie ID	A text box to add or edit the unique identifier of the Specie record. This defaults to blank but is required for all records. If missing, the message "Specie ID is required." will be displayed on Save. The ID must be unique, otherwise the message "Duplicate Specie IDs are not allowed." will be displayed on Save. This field must be <= 20 characters. Database Field: ERPx_APSpecie.SpecieID
Specie Name	A text box to add/edit the name associated with the Specie ID. This defaults to blank but is not required. This field must be <= 100 characters. Database Field: ERPx_APSpecie.SpecieName
Units Required	A Yes/No field used to identify if a Fish Ticket containing the selected Specie ID, is required to indicate the count of fish in order to Approve or Post. If set to 'Yes' then at least one of the Ticket Items containing the Specie are required to indicate the count of fish (you do not need to specify for each line item). If set to 'No', then the count of fish is not required. Database Field: ERPx_APSpecie.IsUnitsRequired
