Project transactions (PM304000)

This topic gives you information about the elements that you find in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

By using this window, you can view particular transactions associated with projects, review all the transaction details, and release the transaction or reverse the allocation that generated this transaction.
Also, you can use this window to create new simple transactions, for instance, when you are testing new allocation rules.

If you are in the list window, the first line in the table is a search line. Each column has a search field which you can click to search for or filter on specific values and narrow down the displayed table rows. You can search and filter in as many columns as you need to, to only display the results you want to view.

There are two types of search fields:

  • White: here you can type a specific search term to display results in this column containing this exact value. If you search on several (partial) words, you can separate them by a space or % and get different results:

    • space: the result contains the words in any order,

    • %: the result contains the words in the specific order, and the % functions as a wildcard as well.

  • Grey: you can click this to open the column filter pop-up window where you can filter the results for this column.
