Custom Screen Field Properties
The Custom Screen Field Properties screen can be accessed from the Screen Edit/Preview screen by clicking on or within a Field.
The Custom Screen Field Properties screen allows you to customize screen fields/labels appearance and attributes.
The following is a description of the fields that appear on the Custom Screen Field Properties screen:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Column | The fields column position on the screen. |
| Row | The fields row position on the screen. |
| Field/Label Text | The field name or the label text to appear in this cell on the custom screen. The system supports the same field to appear more than once on a custom screen. |
| Type | The type of field used on the screen. |
| Occurrence | If a field is repeated multiple times on a screen (eg. a list of part numbers), you can create a single part number field but use the Occurrence value to uniquely identify each field. For example, if you had 5 part number field, each one would have a unique occurrence number from 1 to 5. The reason for allowing this is to eliminate the need to configure 5 separate part number fields. |
| Justify | Determines the field or label justification within the cell (e.g. left, right or center). |
| Bold | Allows you to bold the label or data in the cell. |
| Color | The color of the label or data that appears in the cell. |
| Background Color | The background color for the cell. |
| Input Width | Determines how many characters in the input box are visible. This field definition will determine how many characters can be entered. |
| Column Span | Determines how many columns are spanned (combined) in order to present the field or label. Used for headings that span multiple columns or to handle larger input fields. |
The following buttons allow you to complete your work on the Custom Screen Field Properties screen:
| Button | Function |
|---|---|
| Save | Saves changes made to the Custom Screen Field Properties screen. |
| Delete | Deletes the selected field. |
| Close | Closes the Custom Screen Field Properties screen without saving and returns to the Screen Edit/Preview screen. |
