▪Exit
▪FAQ
Editing tools:
The editing tools are used to manage specific operations when using applications. The tools will turn on when an application requires the tool to be used. For example: If you are posting an adjustment batch, the Post tool will turn on when you can post the transactions into the system. The tools groups include:
▪File: Add, Delete, Save
▪Edit: Clear All, Copy, Copy Same, Edit, Refresh, Select All
▪Navigation: Browse, Down, Filter, Find, Information, Pane View, Park, Up
▪Process: Post, Void, Abort
▪Data: Combine, Download, Email, Export, Import, Preview, Print

The UI has a customizable Quick Access Toolbar that allows a user to add any of the applications to their custom toolbar, which avoids having to select a group tap (HOME, APPLICATIONS, REPORTING, SCHEDULER, SETUP) then selecting an application to run. Also, the editing tools are automatically added after the customized tools, which also avoids having to select the HOME tab to select a user tool. |
