Extender Actions allow a window to perform specific
actions based on user input. There are three actions that can
be performed: Disable Fields, Enable Fields, and Run
Template.
·
The Disable Field action will disable
the selected Extender field. This will allow data to be
displayed, but not entered or changed.
·
The Enable Fields action can be used
to enable fields that were previously disabled using the Disable
Field Action. When a field is enabled, the data in it can be
added or changed.
·
The Run Template action can be used
to run a specific Window Template when the action is triggered.
The templates need to be exist before they can be selected
using an Action.
There are three events in an Extender Window that
Actions can be added to: Change Field Value, Enter Field, and Exit
Field. Conditions can also be added to conditionally perform
any of the above actions.
·
The Change Field Value action
triggers when the specified field has been changed in an Extender
Window. The action fires after focus has been lost from the
selected field.
·
The Enter Field action triggers
whenever a specific field receives focus in an Extender
Window.
·
The Exit Field action triggers
whenever a specific field loses focus in an Extender Window.
Information about Actions is divided into the
following sections:
