Updating fields

Right-click in a field within a grid to update selected rows. Updating fields in Infor EAM follows the standard Windows controls for selecting rows:
  • CTRL+CLICK: Individually selects and unselects rows
  • SHIFT+CLICK: Selects all rows between the clicked row and the most recently selected row. Shift+Click also unselects all rows that do not meet the criteria above.

The header at the top of the form will not update for subsequent selections; it will always show the first record selected. Therefore, if the List View page has multiple records selected, the system remains on the record displayed in the header. The multi-selection is lost when you leave the page.

If you click off the record that is currently being displayed in the header, the system displays the top-most selected record in the header.

Note: The update fields feature is available only on the following List View pages: Work Orders, Parts, Equipment, Requisitions, Purchase Orders, and User ID.

To update fields:

  1. Select the records to update.
  2. Right-click on a selected record, and then select Update Field.
  3. Field—Select the field to update.
    Note: Not all fields are available for update in the right-click options. If a field is Protected or Hidden, it is not included in the list. In addition, some fields with associated special business rules, i.e., prompting the user with a yes/no question, are excluded.
  4. New Value—Enter the new value for the field.
  5. Set Value to Null—Select to set the field to null.
  6. Click Submit.
