Adding a grid to a detail page

If you want to add a grid to a detail page, you can use the Grid Builder to create your grid and link it to the correct business object simultaneously.

Note: The default width for grid columns is 100 pixels, which you may find to be too narrow. To change the width of a grid column, edit the Width property. You can specify a greater number of pixels, or you can specify 0 to set the width dynamically.
  1. Open the Page Editor.
  2. Click Controls and select new Grid (Grid Builder).
    Note: The Grid Builder is only available if you're editing a detail page, not a standard page in the Content Manager.
  3. Select Existing Table or New Table.
  4. If you're using an existing table, select the table that you want to use.
    When you select Existing Table, Infor Public Sector shows a list of existing tables that are linked to the business object for the detail page. Select a table in the grid to show its columns in the Control Collection grid. If only one table is listed, its columns are displayed automatically.
    To add columns to the grid, specify the type of control in the Control Type column of the Control Collection grid. The default control type for grid columns is EditBox. You can also select the Automatically Assign Control check box to create grid columns automatically.
  5. If you're creating a new table, specify the common ID and the table name, and specify the columns for the table in the Data Builder grid.
    If you do not specify a name in the Table Name field, Infor Public Sector assigns one automatically based on the common ID.
  6. Click Save.
