Standard Bring Backs

Standard bring backs include all master tables, UDCs, and anything that has an associated description. There are thousands of data items that fall into this class such as Address Book Number, Business Unit, Company, etc.

For this class of Bring Backs, the bring back brings back additional information about the item.

Example 1 - Address Book Master Information

If you right-click any address book number cell in your grid you will see: Drill Down / Bring Back -> Address Book Master. When you select this option, the description for the address book number will be returned to your grid. Simply double-click the new calculation (which is a Table Lookup calculation - see Get Related Data from Another Table) and edit the columns to bring back - add Search Type for instance. In this manner, you can effectively bring back any master table data you need very quickly.

Example 2 - second UDC description

Sometimes you want the second UDC description for a UDC item. Use Bring Backs to get this. Right-click a UDC value your grid: Drill Down / Bring Back -> User Defined Code Values. When you select this option, the description and second description for the UDC will be returned to your grid. You can also double-click the new calculation (which is a Table Lookup calculation - see Get Related Data from Another Table) and edit the columns to bring back.
