Presentation of the Data area
The data area takes up most of the main window.
It's made up of a grid of rows and columns. Each row represents a record (depending on the context: Address, Invoice, Entry, Employee, Title, etc.) and each column a record item (Last name, First name, Invoice number, Entry amount, Document title, etc.).
The content of the lines displayed adapts to the current record selection. Thus, following a search, the current record selection may be modified.
Records can be activated (highlighted) to designate which records you wish to apply a particular treatment to (modify, print, delete...). Once the files have been activated, call up a command from the Action menu, click on the corresponding button in the button bar , or right-click on a file to select a command from the contextual menu.
You can also customize the display by modifying the grid columns:
- Modify column width
- Move a column
- Replace a column with another column
- Add a column
- Sort data by a column
Display customization is stored individually for each user registered in the Maintenance. In this way, each user can choose the display that is most useful to him or her.
