Field | Description |
|---|---|
Mandatory | Determines if a field must be completed. Any relevant mandatory fields must be completed when adding a new element. This field can be disabled if it is made mandatory by the system or in Field Definer. |
Confirm | Any modifications by the end user of the value in this field need to be confirmed if the Confirm attribute is selected. |
Fill in the drill-down context | Determines if a field has to be completed based on the selections made by the end user at previous selection levels (this is only possible if the field is visible and not read-only). |
In selection | If enabled, the field concerned will be available in the filter dialog box (end user can set a filter on this field). For hierarchical business objects, you should always enable the In selection attribute on the highest level. This attribute is not available to be set for user defined business objects. |
Read-only | If enabled, the field can only be read and not changed by the end user. Note that Planon ProCenter can still change the field. |
Default value | Specifies a default value for the field (not available for all fields). |
Fixed filter | Create a fixed filter for the selected reference field. In the corresponding dialog box, end users will see data in the context of the referenced business object. They can turn off the filter. For more information on creating a fixed filter, see Creating a fixed filter. |
Context filter | Create a context filter for the selected reference field. End users will only see pre-filtered data in the corresponding dialog. For more information on creating a context filter, see Creating a context filter. |
Auto-complete active? | Select Yes to activate the auto-complete feature. This setting is only available for reference fields and is set to No by default. |
Auto-complete - min no. of chars | Specify a value to determine the number of characters after which the system fetches the auto-complete list. ‘3’ is set by default. You can also set this number to a minimum of two characters. If the number of characters for auto-complete is less than two characters, an error message is displayed. |
Auto-complete - response delay (milliseconds) | Specify the time in milliseconds. This indicates the latency time when a text is typed in by the user and the call is made to the server to fetch the list. 300 milliseconds are specified by default. If the response initiation delay for any reference field is set to less than 300 microseconds, an error message is displayed. |
