Definition

Use

Use as an internal counter for the columns of the iView. Each column must have a differen counter. The counter indicates where one column is displayed relative to the other columns in the iView. The display order can be changed by the portal user via iView personalization.

Dependencies

By default the columns of a table in an iView are displayed in the order of this internal counter.

For the iView Purchase Order Details the counter has an additional meaning. The Purchase Order Details iView contains both header fields and line items. Fields with a counter greater than 9000 are considered as fields that are displayed in the header. Fields with a counter less or equal to 9000 are considered as fields that are displayed in the line items.

Example

If the field Scheduled Start has the counter 10, and the field Scheduled Finish has the counter 20, the Scheduled Start is displayed to the left of the Scheduled Finish in the iView.
