Navigation Buttons
Navigation Buttons
Navigation buttons are controls used for browsing or navigating. There are
nine different elements of which some are not always available.
 |
Delete record - Deletes the currently selected
record.
|
|
First record - Jumps to the first record in the current set,
according to the sorting and filtering applied (e.g. first order, invoice,
etc.).
It is grayed out if you are already located at the initial record.
|
|
Previous record - Jumps to the previous
record in the current set, according to any filtering or sorting applied.
It is grayed out when no previous record exists. |
 |
Lookup- Clicking
 opens a special
lookup table by using which you can search,
sort and filter existing records in the database. Usually you can set
multiple criteria. To enter in registers, invoices, etc. see corresponding
descriptions.
Windows where using this function makes no sense (e.g. small and
easy-to-use registers) do not offer a lookup table.
|
 |
Save - Saves the changes made to the current
record. They are saved automatically when shifting to a different record.
The button is not grayed out only when entering the record or when changes
occurred that have not been saved. |
|
Next record - Jumps to the next record in the current set,
according to any sorting or filtering applied.
It is grayed out when the next record does not exist.
|
|
Last record - Jumps to the last record
in the current set, according to the sorting and filtering applied (e.g.
first order, invoice, etc.).
It is grayed out if you are already located at the last record.
|
|
New record - Creates a new, blank record at the end of the
current set and opens it.
|
 |
Clone record - Copies the existing record
to a new one; except for the ID, that is, the last character of the
ID which is replaced by a question mark. |
 |
To add a new record click

|
| |
Any button whose use does not make sense will be
grayed-out! |
