Scrolling Up and Down

Scrolling up and down is useful when the report contains more lines than can be displayed on the screen at one time, which is usually the case.

You scroll up to see data that is currently above the top of the screen. You scroll down to see data that is currently below the bottom of the screen.

To scroll through your report, use the predefined PFKeys:

  1. Before scrolling through the report, notice that the first record displayed belongs to A. Haber, and the last record displayed belongs to N. Tracey.
  2. Press the DOWN key (PF08/PF20).

    The report display scrolls down to the next screen. N. Tracey’s record is now at the top of the screen, and J. Brennan’s record is now at the bottom of the list. A. Haber’s record has scrolled off the screen.
