An automatic report runs every morning summarizing the new problems of the last 24 hours. Now lets get down to the specifics of the user interface. Each field is validated as it is entered. Defaults are filled in wherever possible. Some fields require cross-field validation.
Help is available with a single keystroke at any field.
When browsing, a long and short form report are provided. Any database field can be used for selection criteria when browsing. Browsing queries are constructed dynamically depending on the fields entered. There is an implicit AND among all of the fields selected. Reports can be displayed on the screen, sent to a file or printed.
