General Info
Editing options that can be used in the borehole logs, can be done in both the windows app and web interface. In both interfaces the display has two sections. One section displays all the predefined options available (which cannot be edited by the user) and the custom per customer/account options. This means that the user of a customer account can add custom options that they want to be able to use in their borehole logs and are not available in the predefined sets.
