Adding a control collection for a link

A control collection is used to show data from a business object link on the associated page. You typically add a control collection when you link a business object to a page, but you can also add a control collection later.

  1. Select System > Agency Personalization > Content Manager.
  2. In the Menu Groupings tree, browse to the correct business object link.
  3. Right-click the link node and select Add control collection to page link [link name].
  4. Specify a name for the control collection in the Include Page field.
  5. In the Control Collection grid, specify each column for which you want to create a control.
    To add a control for a column, specify the type of control in the Control Type column of the grid. The control types that are available depend on the data type of the column.
    You can also select the Automatically Assign Control check box above the grid to automatically add controls for the columns in the table. Infor Public Sector will select each control type based on the column's data type.
    Note: Infor Public Sector does not automatically assign controls for all columns. For example, domains and key columns are not assigned controls, because these are not typically displayed in the user interface.
  6. Click Save.
