Relationships<\/strong><\/td>\nUse the Add to Cycle<\/strong> link to add items as children of the cycle (see Add Items to Cycles<\/a>); To associate one cycle with another, click Relate Cycle<\/strong> (see Relating Cycles<\/a>)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Lock, Save, and Close Cycles<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • To lock the Cycle Detail Page, click the lock icon \"locked. This makes the Basic Cycle Data read-only. When you lock the Cycle, the system saves any changes you have made.<\/li>\n
  • To save changes and continue editing, click the Save icon \"save\u00a0.<\/li>\n
  • To close the cycle and return to the last Tasklist viewed, you can click either the Save & Close this Cycle tab or Back to SPAERC Tasklist. Both of these actions will save any changes you have made.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \"save<\/p>\n

    Edit Cycle Data Fields<\/h2>\n

    You can edit the PI, sponsor, short title, and description fields from Basic Cycle Data. This does not affect the Items in the cycle; their original values will remain unchanged.<\/p>\n

    Note: <\/strong>You do not need to unlock the Cycle to make changes to cycle relationships and Item relationships.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
