Standard data entry window toolbars are made up of three sections:

  1. Standard Buttons – Located on the left side of the toolbar and provide core functionality.

  2. Record Navigation – Located on the right side of the toolbar for browsing through records.

  3. Status Icon – Located on the far right of the toolbar, indicating the current state of the window.

All data entities in the system (such as drivers, trailers, etc.) have unique IDs. To look up a specific record or navigate to records, you can use the lookup parameters in the lookup windows. Click here for more information about the lookup tool.
