Alternate Panel Settings

The Ledger Enquiry options for each Works Order have two panels at the foot of the screen – by default the left hand panel displays any notes for the works order and the right-hand panel displays a graph showing build and order quantities. The Alternate Panel Settings option allows you to control the display options for these panels.

For each panel you can set the following options:

Bottom Left / Right Panel – select the detail to display in the enquiry panel, options allowed include Graph, Notes, Database, Scans, Email, Contacts (SL/PL only), Word, Job Activities (JC only) and Operations (BM only). You cannot choose the same option for both panels (except for Database but you cannot choose to show the same database for each panel). Leave blank to keep default display

Database to List – if you have chosen the Database option you are now asked to select from the databases available for the enquiry. Only the standard enquiry databases are available

Max Records to List – if you have chosen the Database option set the number of records to list (0 = 255 records). Where speed is an issue you may wish to restrict to the 10/20 records that will display on initial list.

Items to List – if you have chosen the Database option (or the Contacts option) you can select up to five items from the database to be displayed. If displaying the Contacts database then if leave items blank the standard contacts list (items 33-48) are listed instead.

LIFO – set to list details in LIFO order. If set it is recommended that the main index code is set as a secondary index on the detail database.
