Show Fields Primary

Concept Link IconSee Also

 

The "Show Fields Primary" mode is used for interacting with an external spreadsheet to create the model field links in custom case information displays. The three kinds of cells behave as follows in this mode.

Blank Cell

Blank cells behave the same as for the "Define Fields/Strings " mode.

Plain Text Cell

Plain Text cells behave the same as for the "Define Fields/Strings " mode.

Model Field Cell

Model field cells will display a string which represents information about the model field link. The format for this string will be

‘model field name’ ‘variable name’ totaldigits decimalpoints IncludeUnits

 

The model field string will use the primary key fields.

 

When pasting into such a cell or editing it directly it will parse the string entered trying to create a Model Field as though the string represents the model fields as shown in the Show Fields modes. If the string does not represent such a field, then it will remain a Plain Text Cell.
