Adding Help to a Custom Field

By | September 21, 2013

In X3 we often use the field help by pressing the F1 function key. We can add the same functionality on new customized screens.

There are certain standard field documentation associated with X3. This field documentation is nothing but the predefine help files. This help files are already associated with the standard X3 screen’s fields. For example the below screen is the help document of customer field of Customer’s screen.

The New Stuff: How to generate a Log File

The highlighted text is nothing but the keyword of the respective field help. Refer to the below screen shotHelpFile-2On adding the keyword “BCGCOD” to your customized field will add the help file associate with the standard Customer field on Customer’s screen. We can also go to the field documentation screen either by two ways. First is by clicking on “Help Management” button as shown in screen shot above. Secondly you can just navigate to the given path:

Development>Data and parameters>Documentation>Field documentation

The file documentation gives you the option to select different help parameters as per your requirement under the “Standard Help” left list browser.

Hope this “HELP” you in associating “HELP” to your customized screens!!
