5.1. Introduction to Field Code Lookup Tables

Understanding code lookup tables is fundamental to learning how to save and search for documents in Worldox.

What is a Code Look Up Table

A code look up table is a pre-defined list of items to choose from when saving a searching for documents.  Using values in code lookup tables ensures that everyone is filing consistently because for the most part, Worldox fields require that you select a value from the lookup table to file a document.

Viewing Code Tables

There are three ways to view a code look up table:

Option #1:  To view the field code lookup table, simply click on the label next to the field you'd like to view.

Option #2:  To view the field code look up table, select the drop down arrow on the right hand side of the field, and choose "Browse <Selected> Table"

Option #3:  To view the field code look up table, place your cursor in the field, and select F2 on your keyboard.

The Details

Each table contains both field codes and descriptions. 

Here is an example of a field code lookup table:

Some of the fields in the code lookup tables are linked to others.  For example, in the example below, the Doc Type table is linked to the Category table:

Another example is when Investment Accounts are linked to client names.  The values in the Acct No field are linked to the client code.

Worldox also allows you to flag entries as inactive or active.  Note in the illustration below, ALBEJO01 has a slightly different icon than ADAMGR1.  The red circle on the icon indicates that the client code is inactive.

You can still search for and save documents to inactive values, this is simply a visual indicator to you that that value is inactive.
