Configuring the default section of a popup view for a reference icon

KB Summary by Now Assist

Issue

When the user clicks on a reference icon, there will be a popup view. If the popup view has more than one section, the system will choose a random one. However, we can set the default section for a popup view.

Release

Kingston patch 3

Resolution

Assuming we are setting the main section whose 'Caption' is null by default for a popup view.

  1. Navigate to 'sys_ui_section.list'.
  2. Find the specific table and view, there will be several records if this view contains more than one section.
  3. Choose the record whose Caption is null then set the field 'Title' to true.
  4. Clear the cache of the server and re-login the instance.
