9. Make desired changes, then click Next and Finish to save your changes.

Working with Stone Attributes

Each stone attribute has a Data Type.  This defines how it appears when adding stones. 

For example, Certification will display on the stone form as Report # and will have a Text box that accepts any input.

Some attributes will give you the option of changing Data Type.  For example, Finish can either be a Text box or linked to a List.

And some attributes are hardcoded to only accept Numbers.
