Defining custom tabs for screens

Define custom tabs for existing screens. Specify an external URL to transfer values from the current screen. The URL information displays inside the tab in the Infor EAM system.

To define custom tabs for screens:

  1. Open the Screens form.
  2. Select the screen for which to define custom tabs, and then click the Custom Tabs tab.
  3. Click Insert Custom Tab.
  4. Enter a description for the new custom tab. The system automatically generates a Tab Code.
  5. Type—Enter the custom tab type. URL is the recommended setting because it is the only supported value.
  6. Trusted Site—Select to allow access to the parent frame.
  7. URL—Enter the URL for the custom tab.
  8. Click Submit.
    Note: The system automatically passes the key values from the header of the current form to the URL. This feature displays only information related to the selected record.

    To delete a custom tab, select the custom tab to delete, and then click Delete Custom Tab.
