Text entry

Text entries in the header tab and the components tabs are basically similar. The text you put in the header will be available to you for quotes and invoices etc, whereas the text you put in the components tab is only used internally, e.g. for jobsheets.


Each is divided into up to 12 sections each with its own sub-title. The subtitles are set up in system configuration.

Each text section is displayed on the screen on a single line similar to the following:

In this example "Description" is the subtitle.

If the wording that you want to use in a text section is longer than the initial display space, clicking on the graphic at the end of the line will give you a larger area in which to write your text. The window which opens looks like this:

Here you have virtually unlimited space to write whatever you want.  The Snippets button allows you to store and retrieve words and phrases you commonly use, with just a couple of few mouse clicks, to save you from repetitive typing.  See the separate article on Snippets.
