- Tip: the Replace command will import tag codes much faster than the Import command. Use the Import command only when appending a relatively small number of tag codes (less than 25k) to a tag action.
- Tip: the Delete All and Replace commands will generate a lot of empty space in the P3 database. We recommend running the Compact and Repair utility after running any of these commands to optimize the database.

P3 Help

Optionally, the user can assign to each constraint minimum and maximum expected
values for length
and weight data entry. If, during data entry, the user encounters a
combination of Species, Run, and Rear- Type codes other than those that were
predefined within a constraint, or a length or weight value outside the range defined
for that code combination, they will be alerted to, but not prevented from,
processing those data as part of the Tag Detail Record.
Note: minimum and maximum values for length and weight data entry do not
automatically require the user to enter values into these fields. See Mandatory
Length and Mandatory Weight general profile settings if the user should be required
to enter data into the weight and length fields.
Constraints are created and managed within a single profile. Unlike Tag Actions
,
constraints cannot be shared between profiles; constraints exist only in the profile
they were created in. The user can enable one or more constraints by clicking the
corresponding check box field in the Enabled column. All of the constraints that are
enabled for a profile define the restricted domain of allowable input when that profile
is active.
Profile Commands for Managing Validation Constraints
Open - opens the selected constraint to modify its properties.
New - creates a new validation constraint for this profile.
Delete - deletes the selected validation constraint.
