Set Up the Distribution Sites DS Board Standard Icon

You can use the Distribution Sites DS Board as is, or customize it in DesignStudio.

  • You must import the DS (DesignStudio) version of this board as a new board instead of overwriting the non-DS version.

  • Modifying field names or making changes to the DS code views could have unintended effects.

  • The DS version of the Distribution Sites Board has subtle UI differences compared to the standard version and does not include certain advanced features, such as:

    • The Commodities History tab/table

    • Commodity Receiving and Distribution

    • Conditional display for time inputs on the Input view

    Also, in the DS version, the Details view Export to PDF uses the blink engine found in WebEOC Nexus 10.6 and later.

To ensure that the board customizations work as expected:

  1. Set up the board in WebEOC Nexus.

  2. Set up the board in DesignStudio.
