Layout Tab
Use the Layout tab to designate what data (fields) from the record should appear in the columns of the log. Only the fields from the upper form (including linked elements) are eligible for the log.
Notes:
- For Cost-Type, Multiple-Tab BP Forms: If you include an "amount" field on the log for a line item list for a tab, a total of the line item amounts automatically appears at the bottom of each numeric column on the BP form.
- For an SOV Line Picker Log: The system automatically includes existing SOV Picker columns (Item #, Ref., Cost Code Description, and Cost Code). Although they are not required for inclusion on the Detail Form for a Payment Application BP, the system also automatically includes Scheduled Value and Commit Remaining Balance. You cannot remove any of these columns, however, you can rename them using the Column Heading field, change the order in which they are listed, and update the width.
To add a column of data to the log:
- Select the Layout tab.
- Select Add.
- In the Column Header Properties window, use the information in the table at the end of this procedure to complete the column layout.
- Select OK.
uDesigner displays the columns on the Log Page Design window.
- (Optional) To change the order of the columns on the log, use the Move Up (Left) and Move Down (Right) buttons.
These buttons move the columns left or right, respectively, on the log.
- To add another column to the log layout, repeat steps 1 through 4.
- Select Apply.
