!!Field Formats
Inside form windows, data is displayed and entered into fields. You must have appropriate access rights to change information. Many different types of fields are used throughout the application. Some fields are self contained; others involve popup windows. In addition to the fields noted below, there are some special field formatting that is invoked for large text fields, as well as [distribution codes|DISTRIBUTION EDITOR]. Some data structures require a more complex structure such as [date sensitive|DATE SENSITIVE] tables and those requiring [appprovals|APPROVAL BAR].

Some fields like [S.S.N./S.I.N. numbers|GOVERNMENT CODE], [zip/postal codes|ZIP_POSTAL], [phone numbers|PHONE_NUMBER], pay periods have special editing and formatting. You type the digits without worrying about the separators. The system will edit and format the data.
e.g. You enter 123456782 in an S.S.N. The system reformats the field as follows:
e.g. You enter 956071234 in zip code. The system reformats the field as follows:

Lists of values are codes defined elsewhere in the system in their own unique table. If you know the code, enter enough of the code in the field to make it unique. The system completes it for you. If you are unsure of the code, click the icon at the end of the field or use F9 and a popup window appears with all of the allowed codes. You can arrow up and arrow down the list or scroll up and down the list until you find the code you want. You can also enter search criteria at the top to narrow the list. When you find the code you want, double click it or click the Select button if it is the current record.

If time is needed, a separate time field is provided. The logic for handling time is very sophisticated but simple to use. Time is keyed as hours and minutes separated by a colon.
e.g. 8:30 in the morning is keyed as 8:30 or 8:30a or 8:30am You can follow the time with am/pm to indicate that it is after the noon hour.
e.g. 8:30 in the evening is keyed as 20:30 or 8:30p or 8:30pm If you key only 2 digits and the number is less than 25, the system assumes that you are keying hours.
e.g. if you enter 8, the system assumes you mean 08:00
If the number is 25 or greater the system assumes you are keying minutes.
e.g. If you enter 27, the system assumes you mean 00:27
