Add/Edit Prediction Values Data Window
The options in both the Add Prediction Values Data window and the Edit Prediction Values Data window are the same. The Add Prediction Values Data Item window provides for inserting a new record in the Prediction Values Data pane, while the Edit Prediction Values Record window provides for editing an existing record in this same pane. The following table describes the options in these two windows.

(This excludes 217Plus, FIDES, IEC TR 62380, PRISM, and RDF 2000 models.). When (All Models) is selected, the environment or quality level is made available for all models. If you have licenses for multiple notices and/or issues, the choices include an (All) choice for them. For example, there may be (All 299B), (All Bellcore), and (All MIL-HDBK-217) choices.

If a specific part category is selected for Category, choices include All, which is the default, and all General part categories. When All is selected, the environment or quality level is available for all part subcategories.
