Keyboard Shortcuts For Record Editing (SAP Library - MDM Data Manager Reference Guide: Part 1)

Keyboard Shortcuts For Record Editing

Since it is common to edit a series of adjacent records in the Records pane, and even to edit the same fields in each record, the MDM Data Manager provides several time-saving keystroke combinations that speed up editing under these circumstances, as listed in the table below.

Keystroke	Command	Description
Shift + Ctrl + Up	Previous Record	Saves the current record and moves to the previous record while remaining on the same cell in the Record Detail tab.
Shift + Ctrl + Down	Next Record	Saves the current record and moves to the next record while remaining on the same cell in the Record Detail tab.
Ctrl +'	“Ditto”	Enters the value entered into the same field in the previously edited record.
F2	Edit	Enters the field for editing, or opens the drop-down control for selection.
Shift + Enter	Save Record	Saves the changes made to the current record or group of records.
Esc	Restore Record	Discards changes and restores the previous field values. This must be done before changes have been saved.

Note

Each of the commands above works only when the focus is on a cell in the Record Detail tab.
