HOW TO USE

How to use

01

Open the lookup source

A button that opens the source app is shown in the lookup field. If the lookup field is empty, the record add screen opens in a new window; if it has a value, the detail screen of the matching record opens in a new window.

This does not work if the source app has more than one record matching the value of the lookup field.

02

Show input hints

The specified hint is shown in the input box.

03

Filter the records in the list

A search box appears in the list view, and you can further filter the records shown.

Using the search box

A
Narrows down the fields to search. You can search text, multi-line text, rich text, radio button, check box, multi-choice, drop-down, link and attachment fields.
B
Enter the keywords to search for.
C
Filters the records. Filtering also runs when you confirm the keyword (by pressing Enter or moving the cursor out of the box).
D
Clears the filter.

Enter multiple keywords separated by spaces to search with OR. To search for records that do not match, add "!" before the keyword. To search for empty fields, enter "EMPTY".

Notes on entering search keywords +

05

Align table operation buttons to the left

The buttons for working with table rows move to the leftmost column.

06

Show tables in multiple lines

Table rows break at the specified fields and are shown in multiple lines.

This works only on PC.

07

Copy table rows

A copy button appears next to the button for adding a row. Click it to copy the row.

This works only on PC.

08

Sort tables

Click a column header of the table to sort the rows.

This works only on PC.

Rows can be sorted by fields that hold a single value, such as text and date fields, and by fields where a single value is selected, such as drop-downs.

09

Show radio buttons like tabs

Radio buttons are shown like tabs. Combined with Field Display Switching of Boost! Style, you can switch the content of the form with the tabs.

10

Transpose the cross table

The rows and columns of the cross table on the graph screen are swapped.

This works only on PC.

11

Update records in bulk

A bulk update button appears in the list view.

On the screen that appears when you click the button, specify the fields and values to update, and the records shown in the view are updated in bulk.

Attachment fields, fields specified in "Field mappings" of a lookup, the status and fields in tables cannot be updated in bulk.

CAUTION

Notes

When "Table Sorting" is used and the table contains an attachment field, the record is updated once more after it is saved so that the attachments are in the correct positions.

At this time, an error occurs if the table contains a lookup field whose "Key field" is a field without "Prohibit duplicate values" selected. If an error occurs, select "Prohibit duplicate values" for the field specified as the "Key field", or do not use "Table Sorting" in that app.
