- Tab over Glyph icon. Enable this option to skip glyph icons when using the Tab key to move through page objects. A glyph icon displays the related contextual menu for a field.
- Enable Expert Entry. This is on for SPIRE staff.
- Tab over Browser Icons. Enable this option to skip over browser elements when using the Tab key to move through page objects, to restrict tabbing to PeopleSoft elements in the page. Depending on your browser, it can sometimes appear as if the focus is lost, when it is actually on a browser element, such as the URL address field. By setting this to yes, you can avoid this browser issue.
- Tab over Toolbar. Enable this option to skip the toolbar when using the Tab key to move through page objects. The toolbar is located at the bottom of a page and contains standard operations that are needed to work with the transaction, such as Save and Return to Search.
- Autocomplete. Enable this option to have the system do a prompt lookup as you type to suggest appropriate values. Applicable only for fields with defined prompt edit values.
