Adding checkbox to screen
This example adds a new Address Type to the Address screen. It does not require the creation of a new field. There's no field called Type on the Person or Address table. This information is held in a special link table.
- Click <My Profile> | Administration | Customization | Translations. The Translations Find page is displayed.
- Enter the translation of an existing address type in Translation and click Find.
- Click the caption code link.
- Make a note of the details and click Cancel. This returns you to the Translations Find page.
- Click New.
- Create a new translation for the new address type called Delivery, ensuring that the caption family is set as Link_CompAddr and the caption family type is Links.
- Click Save. The new Address Type checkbox is displayed on the Address screen.
To add a new Person Type check box to the Person screen, follow the same steps using Link_CompPers. You can add new email and phone types in the same way, using the caption families: Link_CompPhon, Link_PersPhon, Link_CompEmai, and Link_PersEmai.
