Logical Transactions and Step Header

Logical Transactions and Step Header

Transaction /TCTM/EWM_CFG is provided within the namespace to aid with customising the EWM ITS screens displayed on the client.

TCT Configuration - Logical Transaction

TCT Configuration – Steps

Using the ‘Logical Transaction’ and ‘Screen Fields’ nodes allows for further customisation of the information and display layout on the client.

Entries in this table can be created manually, or automatically generated, using the ITS Template Generator.

Additional configuration fields enable enhanced configuration of each logical step:

Focus handling

When active, the configuration setting will override any automatic cursor setting on the screen. There are two additional options provided:

• N - “No focus at all” means no soft keyboard display, so a field must be selected to make an entry.

• K - “Focus but suppress keyboard” is beneficial where users are expected to make entries with a scan gun. Focus will be maintained, allowing the user to scan/input without the soft keyboard displaying, but the soft keyboard will pop up if a field is touched on screen.

Swipe carousel location

This allows positioning (where applicable, such as in picking where there are multiple tasks) of the Swipe Carousel. There are 3 options:

• T - top.

• B - bottom.

• Null - swipe carousel is not displayed.

Setting forward navigation

This field allows the standard choice for forward navigation on the display field to be overridden.

Standard EWM will consider the functions to define the action of the forward button in the following order: ENTER > ENTERF > NEXT. The first function code in the sequence, which is valid for the step, will be used unless the choice is overridden by this configuration setting.

Setting backward navigation

This field allows the standard choice for back navigation on the display field to be overridden.

Standard EWM will consider the functions to define the action of the back button in the following order: BACK > BACKF > UPDBCK. The first function code in the sequence, which is valid for the step, will be used unless the choice is overridden by this configuration setting.

Should the back button be missing, in cases where the standard ITS screen uses the function UPDBACK, the following configuration can be maintained to resolve this.

In SPRO, navigate to the EWM customising node Mobile Data Entry > Radio Frequency (RF) Framework > Define Steps in Logical Transactions.

Maintain the configuration for function UPDBACK.
