Overview of the Detail View

This guide explains how to navigate the detail view of aACE records. It is intended for beginning users.

The detail view displays information for a single record. It is the primary screen for interacting with data. To display the detail view, click the Go-to icon (>) beside a record in the list view. 

Most module detail views contain similar features. This guide uses the Line Item Codes (LICs) module as an example.

1. Record Navigation

This section also provides other navigation options. Clicking the Main Menu icon () brings the aACE Main Menu to the front of all open windows. Clicking the Record Seeker icon () displays data from other records that are currently in the list view.
