Inserting Fields Into Records

You can insert a field into a record in one of several ways:

  • Using the project workspace tree.

    To insert a field into a record definition directly from the project workspace by using the drag-and-drop method:

    1. Locate a field using the PeopleSoft Application Designer project workspace tree.

    2. Drag the field from the project workspace tree to the object workspace.

      The field and its attributes are automatically added to the list of fields in the record definition.

  • Using the Insert menu (Insert, Field).

    Use the Insert, Field menu selection to search for fields with selection criteria, and then add them to the record using the Insert button. You can also double-click a selected field definition and select Insert the Field Definition. The system inserts the fields below the selected field in the record definition.

  • Dragging fields from existing records.

    To drag a field from one record definition to another:

    1. Open a record that contains the fields that you need.

    2. Select the field.

    3. Drag the field to a new record.
