Individual Menu Configuration
In order to adapt the table view to each user's individual requirements, the application offers a configuration menu allowing you to modify the table contents. This menu is opened by right-clicking anywhere in the table header.
Opening the table view configuration
Each table has an individual configuration menu for adapting the specific settings. The following figure shows the configuration menu for the table Airports in the master data module General:
The table view configuration
The configuration menu offers the following two settings:
Show/hide column: The checkbox Visible is used to show (marked) or hide (unmarked) a column. Note: Even if a column is hidden in the table view, it is still accessible in the Search/Edit panel!
Sort columns: After marking a data record in the list you can define the order where it is to be displayed by using the buttons Up and Down. Note that this setting will not change the data field position in the Search/Edit panel!
This function can be used to individually adapt the display of each table.
