Select Click properties

The two main properties for the function of the Smart link click are:

  • Target (required): The destination web address or URL that the user will be directed when they select the Smart link click. The target can also contain a field path or Injection the will extract data from a field within the ERP. For example, you might have a field in the customer record named WEBSITE that includes the customer’s domain name in it. You could set the following target:

         http://{!CUSTOMER.WEBSITE!}

    Then, create a link to the customer’s site.

    You could also set up a Google search based on the CUSTOMER WEBSITE field:

    Copy
    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q={!CUSTOMER.WEBSITE!}
  • Condition: An argument that determines whether the Smart link click will appear in the interface. For example, a condition can be set where a field in the customer record called WEBSITE must contain text. And only then will the Smart link click display for the user to select. Such a condition would be stated:
    Copy
    {!CUSTOMER.WEBSITE!}!= ''

    You can use Field lookup to insert injections from Intacct instead of adding them manually.

    The rest of the properties on this page deal with the browser window that comes up when the user selects the link:

  • Height: The vertical dimension of the window in pixels.
  • Width: The horizontal dimension of the window in pixels.
  • Position: The window’s prominence among other open windows on the page entered as an integer, similar to what HTML programmers know as a "z-index." To bring up the new window in front of the window from which the user is selecting, enter the number 0 here. To place the new window behind the current window, enter the number 1 here. You can place the new window at higher integer points if you know that several windows will be open.
  • Resizable: Checking this box allows the user to resize the window using the lower right corner tab of the window.
  • Show scrollbar: Check this box if the content that you are pointing to is longer than the Height you choose.
  • Show address bar: To show the URL or web address near the top of the window, check this box.
  • Show toolbar: The toolbar is the bar just above the address bar that includes the buttons for Back, Forward, Stop, etc. If you want these buttons available in the new window, check this box.
  • Show menu bar: The Menu Bar is the set of pull-down menus in your browser window (for example, File, Edit, View, etc.). To make this bar available in the new window, check this box.
  • Show status bar: The bottom of the browser window includes the status bar with information about the current page. To make this bar available in the new window, check this box.
