Object Keys Edit MXEI

This screen allows you to view and/or maintain Object Keys for the Diary and/or Action List. Key values can be entered for the Object, the value being restricted to the given class. In the example given the Requisition Key 'Doc_Ind' has a value of '1' defined by the class 'CHAR(01)'.

The Object Keys identify the particular occurrence of an Object to which the Diary or Action List refers. In use the key values are converted to character values and stored as a character string with a maximum length of 120. This allows the same Diary Tables to be used for all types of Objects.

To define Object keys, you must enter the following information for a specified Object:

The Object Key names. These can be defaulted from the e5 Table to which the Object is linked and can only be entries on this table
The Value(s) of the Object Key(s)
The Class definition of the key(s)

NOTE Value fields are enterable depending on the context of where this program was called from. For example, if called from the Selection window in Diary - List, then values are enterable.

If not described in this topic, click on a field and press F1 to view help. See Common Fields for more information.

Fast prompt allows you to quickly view a list of options for certain fields.

NOTE Field visibility can be defined by your System Administrator, so not all fields documented may be shown.
