Remarks
on data fields
All options available for
update of the basic data have been described
below.
As with nearly all programs
the following also applies here:
- The entry
mask in the application program may differ for this program. Some data fields may be missing
- There may be some defaults or firmly
defined selection options for some data fields. These cannot be updated in
the current program.
- The entry mask contains fields where entry
is optional and fields with enforced entry defined.
- If the data record is updated over several
pages of entry masks, the dialog window is
reached by clicking onto the appropriate button with <Mouse key 1>.
- The same procedure also applies to call-up
of another update program from this program.
- In some cases, you may find so-called
"Switches" which are activated or deactivated by the user with
<Mouse key 1> depending on the setting. Activated switches have a
dark top, deactivated switches are lighter.
