Additional options in Column preferences on line level

Two additional options are added in the column preferences screen on line level. This maintenance screen can be reached by using the gear icon on line level (e.g. via invoice lines).

The options which are added are:

Show grouping: This enables the user to add a ‘group by’  on line level

An example using cost centers in the ‘group by’:

Filtering mode:  The method of filtering within the lines themselves.

Three options are possible:

1. None

No filtering is done on line level.

2. Menu

On header level of the columns, a filter option is added which enables you to filter within the lines.

Per columns, it is possible to use 2 filter options using the ‘and/or’ option.

The column filter used is indicated with a green color, so it is clear at a glance which filters are in use.

3. Row

A line-level filter option is added for quick filtering

The chosen grouping and filtering mode are stored for each user. This additional behaviour is available for line level filtering in workflow and archive of transactions.

By means of the button “Refresh”, you simply renew the worklist to show possible changed data. By means of the button “Email”, which can also be found via the three dot colon button, you can send an email from the application to another user or any other desired email address:

Navigating your mouse to the ‘To’ field automatically shows a list of all users and their linked email addresses to choose from. When you start typing in this field also the e-mail addresses of linked organisation contacts will be shown. It is also possible to send the e-mail to an address that is not known inside the application yet: just continue typing. The list with email addresses also contains email addresses of contact persons, linked to the supplier used in the linked transaction. They are displayed as ‘external contacts’.

Fields ‘CC’ and ‘ BCC’ are by default visible and can be hidden by clicking on the ‘CC & BCC’ link.

At the bottom you also have the option to upload a file from the hard disk to attach to the mail. Besides that, it is possible to attach and send one or more files that are linked to the selected transaction. You can select the attachments by clicking them. They will be flagged when selected.

A sent mail will always be saved as a remark with the selected transaction.

By means of the button ‘mark as read’ worklist items can be marked as read when currently unread.

By means of the button ‘mark as unread’ worklist items can be marked as unread when currently read.

Unread items are marked with bold characters.

If activated, a button ‘review role players assignment’ can be present. When available, this button will give you a preview of the role players that would be assigned to each step, which mandate is used, and which steps were done to find this role player. This is done based on the current selected master data on the transaction.

The other buttons above the worklist have the following function:

Button	Meaning
Approve	Button is only available once the process is ready to be forwarded. If the process cannot be forwarded the reasons for this can usually be shown by hovering the mouse over this button: Depending on the process step, a PIN code may be required for approval.
Reject	Rejects the process. Depending on the settings of the workflow, you can choose to reroute the process one step back, send to the submitter or completely de-activate. It’s always required to enter a remark when rejecting!
Expert	The process can be directed to a colleague with this button. It’s also called the “question button”. You need to enter a remark why you send it to a colleague. The colleague will need to enter a remark as well when approving/rejecting. After approval or rejection, the process will return in your own worklist.
Delegate	Send the process to a colleague. This person can then approve or reject in your name. Then the process will go to the next step; it will not be returned to your worklist. So with this button you delegate the approval to a colleague.

After clicking Edit, you will be in the editing mode. Depending on the process step the transaction is in, you can or cannot edit any fields.
