Understanding the Page Definition Order Tab

Page definitions include an Order tab. Here, the system populates a grid with the names and properties of the page controls associated with the page definition. Properties, which appear as grid column headings, include:

  • Tab Order

  • Field ID

  • Level

  • Label

  • (Control) Type

  • Field

  • Record

  • Display Control

  • Related Field

  • Control Field

  • Page Field Name

  • Allowed Deferred Processing

  • Popup Help

You can use the Order tab as a diagnostic tool, which can save time in addressing issues your page might have with page field processing order and page field tab order among other visual and logical page-processing properties. All values on the Order tab are display-only. Some property values, such as record and field names appear as text; other values, such as Popup Help appear as check boxes in which case, a check indicates that the property is applicable to the page control.
