This section will guide you through the creation of an Extender Field Entry Window. Extender Field Entry Windows are used to link new data to existing Microsoft Dynamics GP windows. You should use an Extender Field Entry Window when an existing Microsoft Dynamics GP window does not contain all of the data that you need to track. For example, you could use Extender Field Entry Windows to create a new window to track additional information against inventory items.
An Extender Field Entry Window allows for up to 15 fields to be added. You can add up to 10 detail fields to a Field Entry Window as well. Adding detail fields to a Field Entry Window will allow you to track multiple records against an existing Microsoft Dynamics GP record. For example, you could use the Detail fields to create a new window to track multiple contracts against an individual customer or vendor.
Window templates are available to default data into these fields. Once setup, the fields can be linked to existing SmartLists as well as Views can be created to allow for reporting on the additional data that is being collected.
