Single Line Items

Single line items are the individual items that make up a form. These items, such as controls and grids, relate to a data dictionary item. The base data dictionary description is used for these items unless an override is applied. You can translate these single line items within a form:

Single Line Item	Explanation
Title	In JD Edwards Translation Tools, the form title appears in the upper left hand corner of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software forms and beneath the Form folder in the menu tree of the Form Design Aid Text form.
Control	Controls are the text fields, check boxes, static text, and radio buttons that appear in JD Edwards forms. Many controls correspond to a data dictionary item.
Menu Hyper Controls	In JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software, menu hyper controls access applications and forms. They are the options available from the drop-down menus at the top of JD Edwards forms as well as from the Exit bar.
Tabs	In JD Edwards forms, tabs act as separators for groups of controls. Users click the tabs to display a new group of controls. Tabs appear in the menu trees (as for controls), but are labeled as tabs in the translation area when you select them.
Grid Items	Grid items are row and column headers for the table. Grid items correspond to the column description for a data dictionary item. On a form, they are the column titles in the detail area.
Text Variables	In JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software, multiple line items are used for text strings and runtime text substitution. Text variables are stored as strings and can be used as an alternative to hard coding text strings in assignments. Developers use text variables instead of hard-coded text because text variables are easier to maintain. You translate text variables; you do not translate hard-coded text.
