Do manual posting with confirmation

Applies to User Roles:

System Administrator

Use the same procedures for evoking the confirmation process as for establishing User Options in manual posting. When you activate the Posting routine, the confirmation process opens the target form and file (contacts) and provides a new set of toolbar buttons.

Click Tailoring > Database Manager, and then select the Administration Mode checkbox.

Note: You must click Administration Mode or you will be using Change Management instead of Database Manager. Format Control Additional Options are not available in Change Management.
Open the cm3r.hardware form.
Retrieve any existing Hardware change request.
Verify that the existing Change Initiator matches an existing contacts file record. To do so, position the cursor on the Change Initiator Name field, and then click Find. The related Contact Information record opens on form contacts.g.
If no contacts record match exists, clear the existing Change Initiator Name field, and then use the Fill button to fill a valid contact value into the change request record.
Update the Department and Phone fields.
Click Post to Contacts from the More Actions menu to initiate posting to the contacts file.

Note: The option name depends on the value entered in the Command field of the Additional Options definition. Therefore, you may see something other than Post to Contacts in your More Actions menu.
The Contact record (target file) for the contact specified in the change request form opens with a confirmation request.

Edit fields other than those selected for the Posting routine.
Click Save to save ALL changes, from both the change request and also changes entered directly in the contact record, to the database.
Click Cancel to ignore any changes you made in the record. The Posting process is NOT complete and you return to the change request form.
