Enable autom. focus transfer in lookup fields

If active, the focus remains in the lookup field, if you have applied a value from the default list. If not active, after the selection in the lookup field, the focus jumps to the next field.

Skip lookup buttons during focus transfer

If active, the lookup button is skipped. If not active, you can use the INPUT ↵ button to switch to the list view of a key table.

As of version 2023.2, the following settings are no longer available, with system defaults set:

  • Validate lookup fields with "is equal to"
    User can no longer influence the validation. For this purpose, the setting on the part of the administrator can be used for a dedicated field, where the validation with "is equal to" is necessary.
    current default as system default → inactive

  • Enable autom. focus transfer in lookup fields
    Since it can be assumed that in the majority of cases the user will want to correct an incorrect entry, this has been simplified
    current default as system default → field may not be left

  • Automatic focus change for lookup fields
    Normally, INPUT ↵ is typically just a confirmation of the input, while ↹ TAB

    also triggers navigation to the next field.
    For reasons of convenience, the automatic focus change therefore also takes place with "Enter" or "Click"
    current default as system default → active
    In this context, focus change for lookup fields is also enabled after selecting the value in the lookup browser

  • Skip lookup buttons when changing focus
    The use case that you want to open the suggestion list or the lookup window by keyboard is still possible by using the down arrow or the shortcut CTRL+N.
    Focusing is skipped for all other use cases
    current default as system default → active

  • "Show always": The first activity is automatically opened after the successful import of an e-mail.

  • "User request": In the wizard, the button "Execute process" no longer has a default action and the drop-down opens, which shows the two options "Import and show result" or "Import only". If the "Drag and drop mail import without wizard" user preference is enabled, this option behaves like "Do not open" and still does not show a wizard.

Integration

Option

Impact

Use entity name for Excel export

For lookup fields on entities the field attributes are considered for the export. It makes sense to split the long text into individual columns when exporting to Excel to allow editing and filtering the data afterwards.
