Documentation

Definition

You can use this setting to determine whether documents are displayed in a dialog box container (switch active).

If documents are displayed in the dialog box container, the viewer is automatically closed when the calling transaction is completed.

If documents are not displayed in the dialog box container, they are displayed in a window independently of the calling transaction.

To override this setting for individual users, use the Set/Get Parameter 'ARCHIVELINKDIALOG'. Possible values:

VIEWER:

Display in separate independent Viewer window

DIALOGBOX:

Display in dialog box container
