The standard cable number assignment process is a multi-step process. One of the checks that is performed is to see if the ports to which we have attached our cable are already assigned to some other cable in the database. If they are found to exist in the database this dialog is shown indicating whether it is the source or the destination that is in question. Bear in mind that multiple records might meet this criteria; hence the grid.
There are legitimate instances where this dialog will be shown and your choice requested:
•Y cable - The first assignment will proceed without error. The second will show this dialog indicating that the source exists. As it should. You have a choice regarding numbering in this case. Do you duplicate the existing number with a new record in the database or request the new number.
•One-To-Many - see above.
•Many-To-One - Inverse of above. You will see the destination exists.
•If you land multiple cable on the same port to parallel the connection.
Pay close attention if you are presented with this dialog. It is catching a common mistake before it gets to your run sheet.
Prerequisites
At least one cable record in the Cables database.
