Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Create the sales file
Applies to User Roles:
System Administrator
To create the sales file:
- Log in to the Service Management Windows client.
- Click Tailoring > Forms Designer.
- In the Form field, type sales, and then click Search.
- Go to the Detail menu to create a file. Either right-click in the sales form or select the Detail menu button in the top right corner, and then select Create File.
-
Type sales as the filename, and then click OK.
If the file name is already prepopulated with "sales," click OK to confirm.
This creates a valid "sales" file. The database dictionary file (dbdict record) generates automatically and displays in the System Definition Utility, with the exception of the No Nulls key for the location field. It becomes the target file for your subform when it appears on other forms.
- Click the Fields and Keys tab to see field definitions and keys. It contains one key on field "code," which is a type "unique."
-
In the Keys section, click New.
The General section is displayed.
- In the Type field of the General section, select No nulls, and then click Add.
- Select location, and then click OK.
-
Click Save.
A warning appears, stating that the pending changes in the keys definitions for this dbdict record require a tableregen.
- Click OK, and then close the System Definition Utility window.
The main sales data form and file are now complete.
