# Data Grids

A data grid is a series of rows in a table where data is added, edited, and deleted. You use data grids to enter scheduling parameters into GEOVIA MineSched.

A number of functions are available to help you manage the data contained in the data grids. Some of the data grids have functionality that is specific to the type of data being entered, but the general features of all MineSched data grids are similar.

Examples of functionality specific to only some grids in MineSched include grouping, sorting, and the ability to use selection lists to input data.

### Data Grid Options

Note: Not all options are available for all grids. Only the options that are relevant to the type of data contained in a particular grid are available.

Option | Icon | Description
--- | --- | ---
Insert |  | Adds a row to the grid, directly below the currently selected row.
Delete |  | Deletes the selected row or rows.
Create copy |  | Copies the selected row or rows, and adds them to the bottom of the list.
Move up |  | The selected row or rows are moved up the list.
Move down |  | The selected row or rows are moved down the list.
Show or hide comments |  | Selected on: The Comments column is added to the grid. Selected off: The Comments column is removed from the grid.
Use partial attributes |  | Selected on: The Partial Attribute and SG Attribute columns are added to the grid. Selected off: The Partial Attribute and SG Attribute columns are removed from the grid.
Settings |  | Opens forms that allow settings to be changed for one or more columns in the data grid. The tooltip for this option, and the features of the form that appear, differ in the different data grids. The tooltips and form names are specified in the following table.
Data grid | Tooltip | Form
--- | --- | ---
Material classes | Define partial attribute naming convention | Partial Attribute Naming Convention
Initial parameters | Edit user defined parameters | User Parameters
User parameters | Configure user parameters | User Parameters
Initial production priorities | Define the number of Priority levels | Priority Levels
Geometry | Edit collections | Haulage Collections
The Settings icon also appears in the New Scenario form. It opens the New Scenario Default Settings form, which you use to specify the default location in which you want to save new scenarios.
Show only canvas selection |  | Selected on: The grid shows only the items that are selected in the canvas. Note: If you insert a row while the filter is on, the new row is not visible in the data grid. Selected off: The grid shows all available items.
Show or hide custom sort order |  | Selected on: Adds the Order column to the data grid. Selected off: Removes the Order column from the data grid. Note: The Order column is not available for all data grids. The data grids in which the Order column is available are: Material Movement Development Rates Production Rates Resource Capacities Location Constraints Activity Rates Activity Resource Capacities
Extract from model |  | Automatically inserts rows into the Material classes data grid for each unique material class value, or into the Qualities data grid for each numeric attribute stored in the model.
Edit in spreadsheet view |  | Opens a temporary spreadsheet view of the data grid.
Automatic Connections Options |  | Allows you to set the parameters for creating automatic connections for the headings using the Automatic Connections form.
Calendar |  | Allows you to select a date relevant to a field in a data grid using a calendar. Note: Using the calendar ensures that the date selected is entered in the format that MineSched requires.
Show/hide sequenced objects on canvas |  | Selected on: Polygons and objects that have been sequenced, and are listed in the Sequence data grid, are displayed in the 3D Canvas. Selected off: Polygons and objects that have been sequenced, and are listed in the Sequence data grid, are not displayed in the 3D Canvas. Note: This icon is available only in the Graphical Sequencer tab.
Display targets |  | Selected on: The target grade is displayed on the chart. Selected off: The target grade is not displayed on the chart. Note: This option is available only if the chart contains data for a stockpile or process for which a quality target is defined.
