How You Use Keyboard Shortcuts
Use keyboard shortcuts to streamline your work. View keyboard shortcuts from the Service Requests list page by clicking the Actions menu, then selecting Show Keyboard Shortcuts. You can also access the shortcuts by typing Ctrl+Alt+H. Your administrator defines keyboard shortcuts.
For more information on how your administrator can manage your keyboard shortcuts, see How do I use keyboard shortcuts.
There are two types of keyboard shortcut. Use Button Access keys to relocate the cursor or the focus of a selection to a specific, or frequently-used interface component, and to execute the action in a view. Action Command keys are direct keyboard shortcuts.
