Features of the document view

When you select an object in the result list, the first available form is displayed in document view. As a minimum, the following forms are displayed for each editable object:

  • Overview form

    This form is used only to display selected data for an object.

  • Main data form

    Use this form to change the object data.

Every form has a form tab bar that displays the selected object according to a set display template. For objects that were marked as pending during a synchronization, the display template is provided with the [Outstanding] ID.

Every form has a context menu with form-specific entries. In expert mode, you can use the Properties entry in the form context menu to view additional object properties and the permissions.

Figure 6: Form in the Manager

To open the forms for an object:

  • When you select an object on the result list, the first form always opens (usually the overview form).

  • From the result list, select single objects one after the other to update the opened form in the document view. Only one form is open at a time.

  • To open other forms, select the task from the task view or from the form's context menu.

To display multiple forms in the document view:

  • Use Alt + Click or the Open on new tab context menu to open the objects.

    This means that you can quickly switch between objects without having to reload the object from the list again. The forms stay open when you switch between categories.

To close the forms:

  • From the menu, select the View > Close active document or the View > Close all documents menu item.

By default, an object‘s overview form is displayed first. You can, however, configure the program to show the edit form for the object first, which allows faster editing.

To enable quick edit mode:

  • In the Manager, use the icon in the result list.

    It is only possible to quick edit the selected object.

  • Select the View > Enable quick edit mode menu item.

    Restart the program to enable quick edit mode.

  • From the Database > Settings menu item, select the Enable quick edit mode program setting.

    Quick edit mode remains enabled even if you restart the program.

The status bar in the Manager also shows the following information when you open a form:

  • The definition of the current object

  • The name of the activated form in the following format: <logical form> [(<physical form>)]

TIP: Double-click the name in the status bar to copy the object definition and the form name to the clipboard.

The forms use different controls and functions.
