The Resource Data Entry Tab Settings page lets you edit the order of the resource
display page tabs.
A value is assigned to each tab. The order of the tabs from left to right is
determined by the lowest assigned value to the highest value. If two or more tabs
have the same value, which is the default except for the summary, comment, and
general tabs, the order of those tabs is determined alphabetically. To change the
value that is assigned to a tab, click the Edit button that is associated with the tab.
In the dialog that opens, enter a value and click OK.

Selecting the checkbox with the same name as the resource
association type allows a reverse resource association to be
created between two resources. Example: Selecting the User
checkbox for the Owners resource association lets you create an
association from a user (parent) to an asset (child). Unless you
select this box you can create associations only from a child
resource to a parent resource.
