We don’t want you to have to type
unless it’s absolutely necessary. That’s why we provide Date, Number, and Combo
Box fields. It’s also why PTWin provides you with five ways to Borrow whole blocks of
information from another location in the same record, or another record altogether.
If you’ve already entered Applicant, Parcel, Contractor, or Owner information into a
PTWin permit record, chances are you won’t have to do it again. You can just Borrow
it to fill in the fields of the record you are working on.
The Window Toolbar for the Permit Window contains a Borrow button that lets you take the
Applicant, Parcel, or Contractors from any other permit record to fill in the associated
fields in the current record.
The Applicant page of the Permit Window also contains two buttons that move a copy of the
Contractor or Owner information from the current record into the Applicant fields for the
current record.
