Hi all,

Is there any way to add extra columns and have user input data into it for alarm data?

There is the acknowledge notes, but I want to add another column for when the alarm is cleared, for user to input what really happened and what steps were taken, for example.

Is it a good idea to create an alarm associated data, leave it blank and update the row as needed, or creating another table to link the alarm data is better?
