| To use a Multi Main Table session |  |
| A Multi Main Table (MMT) session is a combination of multiple sessions, each of which has a unique main table. MMT sessions are especially designed to present data with a typical parent-child structure, for example: Sales order and the related sales order lines Financial business partner group and the related ledger accounts and control accounts Work order and the related work order activity lines, work order material resources, work order other resources, work order measurements, and work order hours accounting Although this data is distributed among several main-tables in the system, the data can all be presented and edited from a single parent/child session. This enables users to enter data quickly and to maintain a good overview in their work. A typical parent-child session has two areas: The upper part contains information and functionality about the parent The lower part contains one or more lists that show data about the various types of children Both parent data and child data can be edited inside the session, which makes the sessions extremely powerful for data entry. In addition, a parent/child session also offers the user a complete overview of all the important data related to the object. The following figure shows an example of a parent/child session: Sample parent-child MMT: Service Order - Lines (tssoc2100m100) For detailed information on MMT sessions, refer to “Multi-Main Table sessions” in the Infor Enterprise Server online help. |
