The cross connections subform displays the cross connections for the circuit whose record is displayed. The subform lists essential information about the cross connection such as the position of the cross connection in sequence (sequence number), the cross connection type, such as drop insert or patch, the source and destination NE's location, type, instance and the port name of the terminating card. From the circuit editing screen, the user can move directly to the screen for adding a ring cross connect, provision a sub-network or provision a broadband service. The bearers section of the screen shows all the next level bearers that carry the selected circuit. Information about the bearer includes the position of the bearer in sequence - "sequence number" - the name of the bearer, the status of the bearer (planning stage, in-service or out-of-service) and the path for which the bearer is used. The tributaries section is similar. The circuit editing screen details assembly models. Assembly details include its unique identifying name, its status (proposed, active or inactive) and a description. The assembly endpoints and internal assembly links must be selected for an assem- bly, although the assembly links must already have been created in the system. Among the important features of the assemblies functionality is the ability to bulk load and automatically create the physical connectivity between NEs - frames and equipment. Assemblies become available as abstract capacity during the circuit design and provisioning process. Provisioning staff can select an entry point to an assembly and then order the system to assign capacity automatically throughout the assembly. Parent connection
