Delta Panels

Every module in Infor M3 SWB is associated with an overall panel file, which consists of many panels. If you only must change a few panels, you can create a special Delta panel file. Save the Delta panel file to a separate library containing only other saved Delta panels. Infor M3 SWB will by default use a Delta panel from this library before it selects a standard panel from the overall panel file.

Specify the path to the Delta panel file in Infor M3 SWBs Startup Command File:

Infor M3 SWB will first search the special library for an existing Delta panel. If no library is found, a standard panel is used, from the file called PANELS.

When you install a new version of Infor M3 SWB, you can re-utilize panels in the Delta panel files, without repeating the process. If further changes are required to any panels in the new version (and they are Delta panel files) all changes must take place in the Delta panel itself.

You can obtain an overview of Infor M3 SWBs search for the specified panel files to see whether they are located in the System module. The column status shows the progress of Infor M3 SWBs search for a panel file and will register whether or not it has been located.
