Saving

Each time you make changes to a screen, you need to save it. To save the screen, choose Save. The system saves all components attached to the screen (screen attributes, layout, element list, screen flow logic).

Activating

To call a screen in a transaction, you need a runtime version of it. You create a runtime version of a screen by activating it. To do this, choose Screen → Activate (or the Activate icon). Whenever you activate an unsaved screen, it is automatically saved.

Note

You should check a screen for consistency before you activate it. Sometimes you may want to activate a screen even though it contains inconsistencies (for example, for testing purposes). If these inconsistencies are severe or the screen flow logic contains syntax errors, the system does not create an active version of the screen.

Deleting
Caution

Before you delete a screen, you should check its where-used list.

To delete the screen, select it and choose Screen → Delete. The system deletes everything associated with the screen, including its flow logic.
