Default values allow the user to configure data that will be filled automatically when adding clients, transactions or commitments. For example, the communication language "English" could be assigned each time a new client file is created. Another example of this would be if a virtually identical commitment must be entered for several different clients, it is possible to define the pieces of information that are common to all these commitments. More specifically, if all the commitments start and end on the same date, it is possible to ensure that '''''Prodon''''' remembers those dates, so the user would not have to enter them each time.

Default Values



WARNING : This document is currently being edited/revised, it is possible that some parts are missing or obsolete.

Introduction

Default values allow the user to speed up high volume data entry.

There are three different types of default values in Prodon:


Default values allow the user to configure data that will be filled automatically when adding clients, transactions or commitments. For example, the communication language " English " could be assigned each time a new client file is created. Another example of this would be if identical commitments are to be entered for several different clients, it is then possible to define the information that are common to all of these commitments. More specifically, if all the commitments start and end on the same dates, it is possible to ensure that Prodon remembers those dates, so the user would not have to enter them each time.


Furthermore, it is possible to establish a tabulation order when adding new transactions.

Configuring Default Values

A " Default values " window appears as a blank window for the chosen type (clients, transactions, commitments). Therefore, if the " Clients " type is selected, a blank window identical to a new client window opens.

Default Values for Transactions

To configure the default values of a transaction addition window, go to " Transaction management ".

To do so, from the software's home page, click on the " Transactions " menu, then select " Prodon5 Default Values Transaction Button.png Transactions ".

Then go to the configuration window of the default values.

To do so, click on the " Update " menu, then select " Default values F3 ".

Prodon5 Default Values 002.png


After clicking on " Default values F3 ", this window opens.
Prodon5 Default Values 003.png
A: If you select the option to ask for each transaction, it will ask you if you want to make an instant payment, deferred payment or batch payment. It is the default question asked for an electronic payment type. 
B: The fields that are in blue are the fields available to insert default answer's when entering a new transaction. The user can decide which fields will be pre-filled.
NOTE : NOTE: All the fields for which values have been entered here will automatically be filled in when adding transactions. However, the user can always change the values manually from the transaction entry window. For more details concerning transactions, click here. To define a tabulation order when entering a transaction, click here.

Default Values for Clients

To configure default values for the new client window, go to " Client management ".

To do so, from the software's home page, click on the " Clients " menu, then select " Prodon5 Default Values Bouton Clients.png Clients ".

Prodon5 Default Values 004.png


Then go to the configuration of default values window.

To do so, click on the " Update " menu, then select " Default values F3 ".

Prodon5 Default Values 005.png


After clicking on " Default values F3 ", this window opens.

Prodon5 Default Values 006.png

Enter the default values in the desired fields. For instance, " English " as language of communication.

NOTE: All fields for which values have been entered here will automatically be filled in when adding new clients. However, the user can always change the value manually when creating a new client. For more details concerning the addition of new clients, click here.



Default Values for Commitments

To configure the default values for a new commitment, go to " Client management ".

NOTE: The " Prospecting and Commitments Module " must be activated for the following options to be accessible.

To do so, from the software's home page, click on the " Clients " menu, then select " Prodon5 Default Values Bouton Clients.png Clients ".

Prodon5 Default Values 007.png


Then go to the default values configuration window.

To do so, click on the " Update " menu, then select " Default values (Commitment) ".

PRodon5 Default Values 008.png


After clicking on " Default values (Commitment) ", this window opens.

Prodon5 Default Values 009.png

Enter the default values in the desired fields.

NOTE: All fields for which values have been entered here will automatically be pre-filled when adding new commitments. However, the user can always change the values manually when entering a commitment. For more details concerning commitments, click here.

Configuring the Tabulation Order

It is possible to configure the tabulation order in the transaction window. This function allows to define the order in which the cursor moves from one field to the other while pressing the " TAB " key on the keyboard. By default, the cursor goes over every field. However, it is possible to have it go over only certain fields in a precise order.

To modify the tabulation order in the transaction window, follow the steps in the " Default Values for Transactions " section.

PRodon5 Default Values 010.png

In the " Default transaction values " window, click on the Button 123.png.


After clicking on the Button 123.png button, this window opens.

Default Values 011.png

A: It is the list of all fields available when adding a transaction.

B: It is the list of fields on which the cursor will stop when pressing on the "TAB" key of the keyboard. The tabulation order must be placed downward.

C: The Button right arrow long.png and Button left arrow long.png buttons allow the fields to be moved from column A to column B and vice versa.

D: The Button Arrow up.png and Button Arrow down.png buttons allow the tabulation order of the fields in column B to be specified.

NOTE: If there is no field in column B, the tabulation order follows the order of the fields that are in column A. However, the tabulation order can not be determined in column A. To establish an order different from the one in column A, which contains all the fields, the user has to move all the fields from column A to column B, using the Button right arrow long.png and Button left arrow long.png buttons, and then define the tabulation order using the Button Arrow up.png and Button Arrow down.png buttons.
