 Notes

 The third and fourth screen options are only available when using the full screen enquiry tools and not the left/right list display.

 Sales, Purchase and Job Costing enquiries allow a UPDATE action for amendment from within the enquiry, as opposed to actions that link to the standard application maintenance screens.As such the third and fourth screens will allow setting of whether data items are view-only, require upper case input or are mandatory input.Other enquires are view-only by nature.
