Description

Use this field to find and load the grid or Tree View that you want to change.

Click the Search icon to find the grid you want to change. Clicking the Search icon displays the BVD Lookup dialog box. You can type a portion of the program name (BVD id) for the grid or the grid name itself in the Search String field and then click Search.

Example:  PI_112 is part of a program name\BVD id.

Archived is part of a description (e.g., Archived Policies).

A list of one or more items is displayed on the BVD Lookup dialog.

The number to the right of the "Display Lines" heading shows the number of lines included and displayed in the grid.

Use this option to make the selected field the default search column in a Search Client Records. Select the field in the grid and then click the words Default Search Column to make the selected field the default search column.

Use these arrows to change the position of an item in the grid. To use the arrows, select the row that holds the field you want to change, and then "open" the field that you want to change.

To open the field, click the Grid field to change the item's position in the grid.

Once the field is open, click the up or down arrow to change the position in which the item is to be displayed in the grid.

Description

The heading field determines the actual wording for the item in the Heading column of the grid. For example, to save space, you might decide to change a column heading from "Policy Number" to "Policy #."

If you do not want the item to appear in the grid at all, type HIDDEN in this field.

For the change to be committed to the database, you must tab out of the field or click into another field before selecting Save.

The number you select here determines the position of the item in the grid. Use the Up and Down arrows or number to set the position of the field within the grid.

There can be only one field per position. For example, if you assign both Effective Date and Expiration Date to position 4, the following error message appears in red at the top of the page: Grid Order has duplicate records. Please correct before filing.

The number you enter here determines how many characters can be entered in the Heading field.

Data Type, identifying the type of data value assigned to each specific dictionary item. The options available are: “S” = String (alpha and numeric data), “N” = Number specific field  and “D” = Date specific field.

If any value other than “S”, “N” or “D” is entered in that field, an error message displays indicating an invalid entry,

This column can be edited by users who have access to this page based on Role Based Security settings.

This field is critical when sorting data and allows Sagitta to sort on the user's workstation rather than relying on the server to sort the data and send it back over the network. The workstation (client) sort is faster than server-side sorting.

Example Use this field where users are sorting on a date column within a specific Selection Grid and it may be just sorting on the month and not the complete date----it is possible that the data value for that dictionary item may be set-up with “S”tring or “N”umber rather than “D”ate. Change the setting to “D”ate and the sorting issue will be corrected.
