Tab Values

This tab is used to view the table results.

The first column displays the set up titles. The next columns are the ones defined during the table setup.

At this level some amounts may be simulated by directly modifying the requested amount. A user style starting with root 'TDB' can be applied to this type of action to highlight the modification. During any modification, the user is asked whether he/she wants to recalculate totals.

TDBBLUE style: ;color:#0000FF;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal, is used to highlight modifications made in blue.

It is possible to justify the recovered amounts by zooming on the details: on the required field, click Detail from the Actions icon. The Analytical detail screen opens.

By checking the appropriate boxes, it is possible to:

  • export the column or line titles,
