Managing custom pages

You can take advantage of Custom pages to customize SmartTurn for business processes that are unique to your operation. The Administration>Custom Pages section is where you modify existing pages in SmartTurn by changing the Core fields or adding Custom fields.

If you modify an existing page to create a Custom page, you always have the option of having those modifications active or inactive, or of throwing away the modifications entirely by reverting back to the original standard screen.

Before you customize a page, there are some basic terms to know:

Basic Terms

Custom pages are screens in SmartTurn that you have customized. Once you customize a screen, it keeps the same name as it had when it was a Standard screen, but it contains one or more Custom fields, and/or displays Core fields or columns in a customized order.

Core fields are the fields provided by SmartTurn. Examples are: "Ordered Qty", "Warehouse", "Expire date", "Contact". You can also modify a core field, and how it displays on a list screen.

Custom fields are the fields you create to customize SmartTurn for your operation. Before you add custom fields to a screen, you create custom fields in Administration>Custom Fields.

Standard screens are the screens provided by SmartTurn, as they exist before you customize: Examples are: "Edit Purchase Order, "Inventory by Item", "Add Bin Transfer", "Edit Item Master Group". Standard screens that are available in SmartTurn for customization are called "customizable pages." (Most but not all Standard screens can be customized.) You can customize a Standard screen by:
