Many OLE electronic documents (eDocs) contain data fields that must be filled in from a controlled list, either by choosing from a drop-down menu, or by doing a lookup search to find valid values. The choices for these fields are defined in another type of OLE eDoc, called a maintenance document.
In OLE, maintenance documents are located on the Maintenance menu tab.

All of the maintenance eDocs are viewed and maintained in a similar fashion. Selecting the desired table from the Maintenance menu tab takes you to the lookup screen. From that screen you may create a new maintenance eDoc by clicking the create new link or search the table to view, edit, or copy a table value. OLE maintenance eDocs have varied permissions and access. Most users can perform lookups and selections, or view some of the data, but not all users can edit or create new maintenance tables.
