The Main Form: (3) Tree

Steve Wootton edited this page May 21, 2022 · 3 revisions

When an eConnect transaction has been selected, the structure of the eConnect transaction will be displayed in the Tree. Each taXXX eConnect node will be listed. These eConnect nodes can be expanded and their eConnect elements will be displayed.

Below are three examples.

On the left is a GLTransactionType, which is composed of six eConnect nodes. All of the nodes are closed and none have been checked.

In the center is the same GLTransactionType, but the Header node has been expanded to show all of the eConnect elements. Note that the elements that are required by GP are highlighted in bold text and are checked. When a transaction is initially selected, required elements are checked while the non-required elements are not. Any elements can be checked or unchecked as desired.

On the right is the same GLTransactionType, but this time the Line node has been expanded. This is a bit different from the Header node in that there is an extra level, with the taGLTransactionLineInsert node beneath the taGLTransactionLineInsert_Items node. This is because there can be more than one taGLTransactionLineInsert node in a transaction. All nodes that end with "_items" can contain zero or more subnodes.

GL Transaction - Closed GL Transaction - Header Expanded GL Transaction - Line Item Expanded
GL Transaction - Closed GL Transaction - Header Open GL Transaction - Line Open

Selecting/Deselecting Multiple Nodes

Right-clicking on an eConnect element will display a context menu with three options:
