Generic name of the block |
All blocks are based on a CRM basic block type. To reference CRM generic block names, go to <My Profile> | Administration | Customization | <Entity> | Blocks and click New. The custom block names are listed in Block Type. The block names correspond to the main block names in the CRM block hierarchical diagram. All other blocks are based on one of these block types. |
Name of any custom screen (Entry block) |
A standard installation includes a number of predefined custom screens that you can manipulate or copy. To reference predefined custom screen names, go to <My Profile> | Administration | Customization | <Entity> | Screens. The screen names are displayed in Screen Caption.
