Order of attributes in BO -- alpha vs. "logical"

Post by tford »

I'm curious if anyone else is frustrated by the fact that you can not define the order of attributes in a BO in the main BO screen. Normally when I'm designing a layout of a BO, I do so in way that is "logical" from a data point of view.

In most cases, that "logical" order would then be best for a data entry screen.

Since AwareIM moves the attributes I'm entering into alphabetic order & creates a default form based on that alpha order, I then have to re-do the form into my "logical" order. Very frustrating.

Does anyone else have the same frustration?

Thanks,
Tom

I have the same issue. Seems like they could implement the same Move Up - Move Down functionality for the default form as you use in the custom forms.

That sounds like a great idea to me. Hopefully they will add this to the wish list. I would think that this feature would be a time saver to anyone using AwareIM.
