Add a Tooltip

You can add tooltips to column headers in the Expense Report grid.

A tooltip provides users with easy access to helpful information about the field. Tooltip text displays when you click beside a field or other element in the form.

If Vantagepoint is set up to use multiple languages, see Screen Designer and Multiple Languages for some special considerations.

To add a tooltip to column headers:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select My Stuff > Expense Report.
  2. On the Actions bar of the Expense Report form, click Other Actions and then click Design.
  3. In the Grid Properties area of the Screen Designer form, select the icon next to Field Type.
  4. On the Grid Settings dialog box, select the column for which you want to add a tooltip.
  5. In the Column Properties section, in the Tooltip field, enter the text for the tooltip.
  6. Click Save.
  7. In the Screen Designer mode of the Expense Report form, click Save on the Actions bar.

To see the tooltip icon , create or open an expense report.
