1.1.2 Screen Navigation

This topic explains screen navigation using panes and search options.

Left Window

In the left pane, system lists and provides drop-down links for various modules available in the product. Click Drop-down link to expand the Module Master Tabs and Drop-down link to collapse them.

To open a screen, navigate to Module Master Tab to which the screen belongs, expand the tabs, and click the screen link user wish to open.

Menu Search in Left Window

In the left window user can make use of the search option to directly search and open the screen that user are familiar with, and avoid multiple steps of navigation from the LHS menu.

The Search box in the LHS facilitates for an intuitive search of required screens in Oracle Financial Services Lending and Leasing. For example, on typing the first letter of the screen, the search box displays a list of all available screens starting with the letter entered in alphabetical order. User can click on the required screen and press Enter. The screen is displayed in the main window/work area.

When there are multiple matches with same screen name, user can filter the results through the module from which the screen is accessed which is indicated in angular brackets. For example typing VEN displays the following options for selection - Vendors(Collections), Vendors(Origination), Vendors(Servicing), Vendors(Setup System). For subsequent search, user need to clear the data in the search field.

Right Window

The Right Window can also be termed as work area. When user click the screen link on left pane, system displays the corresponding screen in the right pane.

User can open a maximum of 15 screens at a go. Once the maximum limit is reached, the system displays an error message.

Each active screen is displayed as a tab at the top of right pane, across its width. To view a screen, click the screen tab. User can identify the active screen with its white background. Also, operation on any of the screen will not affect the data in other screens.

User can also open multiple Applications at the same time as separate tabs in the right window, provided the users system administrator has enabled the option 'Mac_Multi_tab_Ind' = 'Y’ in MENU_ACCESS table.

Having this option enabled user can view and update a maximum of 15 Applications in parallel tabs and Oracle Financial Services Lending and Leasing renders dynamic data across all the opened tabs.

However, this option is restricted only to the following screens in Origination Module Master Tab. In the Left Menu of Origination Module Master Tab, user can open multiple applications by click on the following links. Each successive click, opens a new Origination tab.

  • Simple Application Entry
  • Application Entry
  • Underwriting
  • Funding

Few screens in Origination are identical and are linked. Hence, when multi tab option is not enabled, User can open only one screen at a time from the group. A sample of the grouping structure is given below, based on stages of the screens:

Origination:

As per the above listing, user will be able to open only one screen in the corresponding list and need to close the same to open any other screen.
