Adding new lists

Use this procedure to add new lists and incorporate the lists into existing menus, pages, or forms.

Lists are components that you can configure as part of the configuration of pages and business classes. Records or a subset of records from a database table are displayed in a list.

Lists are reused in applications. If you configure a list, the configuration is reflected on every page that uses the list.

  1. Select Configuration Console > Configuration > Create.
  2. On the Configuration tab, in the Add A New Component section, click List.
    Alternatively, you can access this function by clicking the Report tab and clicking Add List.
  3. Specify this information:
    Business Class
    Select a business class.
    List Name
    Specify a name for the list. Use a unique name that is compliant with your standard naming conventions. You can add a prefix to the name such as ZZZ, Usr, or characters that represent your company name.
    Based On List
    Optionally, select an existing list on which to base the new list.
  4. Click Submit.
