Productivity Enhancements
Mass Edit capability for Recon Entity Search Screen
Mass Edit is now available on Recon Entity Search screen, it works similarly to Mass Edit on the Item Search screen, this allows faster and more consistent editing. To use this feature:
- The ER Administrator configures the editable fields for the Recon Entity Search results screen in Reconciliation Definition.
- The Recon Worker selects their Recon Entities to edit on Recon Entity Search screen and sets the new values for fields to be edited using Mass Edit button.
- The Rich Client prompts the user to confirm and apply the edits.
The maximum number of Recon Entities that can be updated in one Mass Edit can be configured using RECONENTITY_SEARCH_MASS_EDIT_MAX_ROWS in ER.properties, it requires deploy.
Display full text tooltip when hovering over truncated result fields
ER Administrator can now configure Rich Client to display full text tooltip when hoovering over result field values that are truncated because they exceed column width. This allows easier reading of lengthy text without resizing or using popup windows.
This feature can be enabled by setting below property in ER.properties
RICH_CLIENT_ENABLE_MULTILINE_TOOLTIP=true
Deploy and restart of Rich Client is required for this configuration to take effect.
Balance Calculation for the Item results Calculator
Balance calculation is now available for the Calculator feature on Item Search Results screen. This new type of calculation computes the net Credit and Debit balances for selected Items and columns based on the Item’s side indicator. This allows users to quickly see potential net balances for selected Items.
Font Scaling User Preference for Rich Client
ER Administrator can now configure the Rich Client to provide user preference setting for Font Scaling. Users can set their own font scale from the Help/Preferences menu. This allows users with vision or device display issues to choose non default font scale without affecting other users.
This feature can be enabled by setting below property in ER.properties:
RICH_CLIENT_SHOW_PREFERENCES=true
Deploy and restart of Rich Client is required for this configuration to take effect.
Note that system default font scale is recommended for most users and some screens may not display normally with non-default settings.
Improved QMatch display in Recon Entity detail
The Recon Entity detail screen now displays both QMatch results and Data Set indicator at same time.
Option to Disable Shortcut Creation on launching Rich Client
ER Administrator can now disable dynamic shortcut creation on launching of the Rich Client by setting the following properties in ER.properties, this reduces user confirmation required for customers running Rich Client from pre-installed desktop shortcuts:
RICHCLIENT_JNLP_EXCLUDE_SHORTCUT_START_TAG=<!--
RICHCLIENT_JNLP_EXCLUDE_SHORTCUT_END_TAG=-->
Deploy and restart of Rich Client is required for this configuration to take effect.
