Popup Fields Single Dialogs Workspace

Use this workspace to maintain the options in pop-up lists, which are lists of possible values that you can use to populate fields in workspaces.

For example, for the Check Book field, you enter a value for each of your check books.

This workspace allows you to maintain the options in Maconomy's pop-up fields, for example, the customer and vendor pop-up fields in the customer and vendor information cards, currency codes, payment terms, budget types, and customer groups.

Maconomy has a fixed set of pop-up fields, and you define and maintain most of the options in these menus yourself.

You can create any number of options in a pop-up field. For example, consider Check Book and Payment Terms:

• In the Check Book pop-up field, you can enter information about the check numbers in your check books. You must create a pop-up value for each check book.
• In the Payment Terms pop-up field, you can create any number of payment terms. You must create an option for each payment term that you create.

You cannot delete existing options. This is a precaution against inconsistencies such as deleting an item type when that item type is already assigned to a number of items. However, you can change the name and information for an existing option, effectively allowing you to change its application.

The information that you enter for each pop-up option is evident from the fields in the Values sub-tab in this workspace. Maconomy verifies this information.

For auditing purposes, it is recommended that you print and file the Popup Fields workspace every time that you change an option. To print the information, use the Print Popup Field button.
