| | Conditional Formatting (ttadv9502m000)Use this session to define conditions to
apply special formatting effects to the data displayed in LN sessions. You can
define multiple conditions per session. You can define different types of formatting effects, for
example a specific color for particular fields or rows, and a warning symbol
for particular rows. You can define various types of conditions, both simple and
more complicated. For example: - In the Production Orders (tisfc0501m000) session, all production orders with Order Status
"Closed" must be displayed on a green back ground.
- In the Sales Orders (tdsls4100m000) session, a warning symbol must be displayed and the
order Amount must be displayed on a blue background, for all sales orders with
an order amount greater than 10000.
- In the Sales Orders (tdsls4100m000) session the Planned Receipt Date field must be displayed with
background color Red if the date is older than seven days. Condition (Planned
Receipt Date < -7)
Points of attention - This session only runs in LN UI.
- Conditional formatting is only supported in LN UI. Worktop users will
not see the formats defined for a session.
- You can only define formats if the Allow Application Personalization check box in your user
data template properties on the LN server ( User Data Template (ttams1110m000) session) is
selected.
- Via the appropriate menu, super users can export formats to an XML
file and import formats from an XML file. In this way a super user can
distribute formats to multiple LN environments.
- You can start this session in these ways:
- From the Settings (gear
icon) menu in a session you started in LN UI.
- Directly, for example from the LN Tools menu or through the Run Program command in the LN UI Options menu.
