The Tag plant breakdown structure can occasionally be incorrectly defined by an engineer. In that case, you can move the Tags from one Area/Unit to another using the 2D tools. SPO/E Core also supports these move/update tasks, however they are delivered disabled out-of-the-box and require some configuration changes to enable them. To enable move/update, you must perform the following steps:

  1. Log on to SmartPlant Foundation Desktop Client.

  2. Click Find > Administration > Form to open the Find Form dialog box.

  3. In the Enter name box, type the required tag form name, and click OK.

    For example, to search for Electrical you can type *Electrical*, for Tag Instrument you can type *TagInstrument*, for Tag Equipment you can type *TagEquipment*, and so on.

  4. In the search results, right-click the required form, for example, SPXTagInstrument-Form, and on the shortcut menu, click Show Sections.

  5. Right-click NameDesc_UI-Section, and on the shortcut menu, click Manage Display Items to open the Manage Display Items - NameDesc_UI-Section dialog box.

    The name of the section can differ across different types of form; you must select the section in which the Name_DisplayItem item is defined.

  6. For the Name_DisplayItem item, set ReadOnly? to False, and click OK.

  7. Right-click SPXTaggedItem-UI, and on the shortcut menu, click Manage Display Items to open the Manage Display Items - SPXTaggedItem-UI dialog box.

    The name of the section can differ across different types of form; you must select the section in which the AreaTag and UnitTag items are defined.

  8. For the AreaTag item, set ReadOnly? to False, and for the UnitTag item, set ReadOnly? to False, and click OK.

After performing the previous steps, the Name_DisplayItem, AreaTag, and UnitTag items become editable and therefore can support the move/update tasks.

When you enable move/update, the configuration changes affect all the forms in the application. After you move/update the required object or tag, you must set the ReadOnly? property to True for Name_DisplayItem, AreaTag, and UnitTag items.
