Summary
The Self-Contained Search screen is a type of Multi-row screen that has a unique navigation in that the user changes one or more "search" fields on the screen, then presses Enter or a Function key to refresh the multi-row portion of the screen with the results of the search.
Roles
| Host | The Self-Contained search screen provides a single view of both search fields and the results for the user. Unlike other multi-row screens, when the screen is initially displayed, the list is not generally valid until entries are made in the search and the Enter key pressed. |
| WS | The key is to have identified the screen NavigationType property as self-contained search. When this is done, the necessary code is generated, especially when using the Finite State Logic generator, which is recommended for all new projects. |
On this screen, the initial display will not display the correct case list--the "Position To" fields need to be entered first, with an Enter key before the list is correct for display or further processing.
