| # To use a header-lines session Use a header-lines session to view and maintain all relevant information related to a specific subject. You can use a header-lines session instead of working in a lot of sessions simultaneously because in a header-lines session you can view and enter data without leaving the session. A header-lines session allows you to work fast, only using the keyboard, if desired. The main components of a header-lines session are: Header Lines Header The header (1) contains the most relevant fields for the header-lines session's subject. For example, the subject of the header-lines session is the production order, and the header therefore contains the most relevant fields for a production order. To create a new record in the header, click ( New). You can now enter data for a new header. To search for a record in the header, click ( Find a record). If you want to add extra details for the record in the header, click ( Open Details Window). A details session is started that you can use to create or modify the new record, including the required details. Lines The lines (2) consist of a series of tabs, each tab containing information related to the subject represented in the header. Use the lines to view and maintain data that is related to the header subject. The information on each line is also present in a session that you can start separately from the line. However, using the header-lines session is much faster than constantly opening sessions to view and maintain information. The contents of the lines are synchronized with the data in the header. For example, if the header displays a specific production order, the lines refer to the production order planning, the estimated material, and the inventory of that specific production order. In the lines, you can directly enter or modify data. The lines display the most relevant fields. Click ( Go to Details) to start a details dession. You can now enter or modify more detailed information for a line. Toolbars In the header-lines session, two toolbars (A and B) are present. The toolbar at the top of the session (A) relates to the header part. The second toolbar (B) relates to the lines. On every tab a toolbar is present that relates to the lines on that tab. |
