Quick Access Panels

Quick Access panels enable the user to display the index paths defined for a report and to view or print report sections based on index and subindex values. Quick Access panels are displayed by entering Q in the User Reports entry panel BYPASS PANEL field or as an option in the Index window or the Active User Report list.

Each index path for a report is fully displayed in its own Quick Access panel. Use the up and down or scrolling keys to display the next (PF08/PF11/PF20/PF23) or previous (PF07/PF10/PF19/PF22) Quick Access panel.

If the same index exists in the next or previous panel, the value specified for that index is retained when displaying the next or previous panel. If the same index does not exist, its value is lost and must be specified again, if necessary, when a Quick Access panel that does contain that index is displayed.

Values entered on a single Quick Access panel are used as selection criteria to select report sections. If a value is not specified for a subindex, that subindex and all subindexes below it (if any) are ignored. Report sections that are pointed to by the index values specified on the Quick Access panel are retrieved. Each retrieved section may be one or more pages depending on how the report was indexed. (Both record-level and page-level index values retrieve report pages. However, report lines are highlighted if they matched a record-level index value.)

If an asterisk, prefix or unmatched value is specified in an index value field, the Values of Index panel is displayed with the available values for that index beginning with the first value (if an asterisk is specified) or with the value that most nearly matches the prefix or value specified.
