A measure has many properties that may be adjusted. The measure's general properties can be adjusted when the measure itself is selected in the left panel.

Name

The field for the "name".

The name of the measure. This is the name which will appear in a stakeholder's list of actions. Depending on the effects of the measure, it is important to provide a descriptive name. You can change this by altering the text in the text field.

Owner

The field for the "owner".

The owner of the measure. This is the stakeholder who will be considered the stakeholder performing the measure, if it is not directly enacted via a stakeholder's list of actions. You can change this by selecting a different stakeholder in the dropdown menu.

Image

The selector for the "image".

The image seen when the measure is selected in a stakeholder's list of actions. A fitting image will help users identify the measure at a glance. You can change this by clicking the image, and selecting a new image in the opened window.

Requires confirmation

The checkbox for the property of requiring confirmation.

Whether the measure will require confirmation from other stakeholders. If this is the case, when the measure is planned, the appropriate stakeholders (such as the owners of land and buildings, and the municipality) will need to approve the measure via a popup. To change this, check or uncheck the checkbox.

Start automatically on date

The checkbox and field for the property of automatic starting date.

Whether the measure will automatically be performed on a given date. When the checkbox is unchecked, the measure will not be automatically performed.

To change this property, check or uncheck the checkbox. To change the date on which to automatically perform the measure, change the date in the text field

Description

The field for the "description".

The description of the measure. This will also appear in a stakeholder's list of actions when the measure is selected. In addition to the name, a good description can be necessary to convey the intent and effect of the measure. You can change this by altering the text in the text area.
