• How was the recorded data entered into the grid? Dialog
• Component Properties Dialog
• Script Text Tab

The template editor allows editing of both the basic template information, such as name and description, as well as the GUI scripting information stored in the template.

	Icon	Description
	Save Changes	Click to save any changes you have made to the template. Click Save As… to open a dialog, save the template under a different name and keep the original intact.
	Cancel Editing	Click to close the template editer and revert any changes that were made.

Details Tab

Field	Description
Name	This is the name of the template as it appears in the template browser and upload mapping wizard.
Description	Provide a detailed description of the template so that it can be easily located.  For example, the description can contain screens or views that were accessed during the recording so that templates for the same transaction can be identified by their purpose.
Share this template with other enterprise users	Check to make the template available to all users in the system. If unchecked, only the user that created the template will be able to access it.

Script Contents Tab

The grid contains specific actions, download fields, and upload fields that occur in the recording.  You can modify the script contents by looping, deleting, or setting properties on one or multiple items.

Fixed/Upload Value Selector Column

Click the up arrow to toggle between an upload value or fixed value.

• Upload Value - The value will come from the load file.
• Fixed Value - The value is the same for every record. Enter in the value for the field in the "value" column. You will not need to include this field in the load file.

	Field/Icon	Description
	Custom Lines	Currently inactive.  Future functionality will allow the addition of custom lines with a GUI Scripting template.
	Actions	Check to display GUI Script Action items in the Script Contents Grid.
	Download Fields	Check to display Download Fields in the Script Contents Grid.
	Upload Fields	Check to display Upload Fields in the Script Contents Grid.
	Descriptions	Check to display field descriptions in the Script Contents Grid.
	Field Names	Check to display field names in the Script Contents Grid.
	Loop	Select one or multiple GUI script items, right-click and select Increment Loop Level to loop that section of the script multiple times based on the number of rows of data in the load file.  When incrementing the loop level on fields in a grid, the "How was the recorded data entered into the grid?" dialog is displayed. For more information, see the Multi Line tutorial. Choose Decrement Loop Level to decrease the loop level of the selected GUI script items. If the selected items are in the first loop level, this operation removes the loop completely.  All other loop levels are decremented by one level.
	Delete Item	To delete an item from the grid, select the item and click the Delete Item.
	Restore Original	If you make a mistake in the template that cannot be reversed, click Restore Original to return the template to its original recorded state.  Keep in mind that all your changes to the template will be lost.
	Properties	Select one or multiple GUI Script items in the grid and click Properties to display the Component Properties dialog and change the properties of the selected items.

How was the recorded data entered into the grid? Dialog

This dialog is displayed when the loop level for fields in a grid is incremented.  It enables automatic set up of the loops in the script without user intervention, eliminating the need to figure out complex loop structures.

Field	Description
Same Row	Select this option if you always enter data in the same row in the grid. This choice is common for an FB50 transaction where all line items are inserted into the first row of the grid.
Row One and Row Two	Choose this option if you enter the first line item into row one and insert all the other items in row two.  This behavior is commonly seen in a VA01 transaction.
Consecutive Rows	Select this option if you fill out all the rows in the grid and then enter a page down key to empty the grid to then insert more line items.  Specify which row the cursor was placed in after using a page down command to empty the grid.

Component Properties Dialog

Field	Description
Only Execute if	Executes the selected item(s) only if the operational statement for the field is true. The valid operands for this are =, <>, <, <=, >,  >=, Starts with, Ends With, Contains, and Between.
Only Execute for the first	Executes the selected item(s) only for the first number of records that you enter. After that the item(s) selected will no longer be executed in the upload.
Only Execute every	Executes the selected item(s) only every number of lines that you enter. For example, if you need to do an action every 4 line items you would enter 4 into the text box and the item would only be executed every 4 times.

Script Text Tab

The Script Text tab displays the generated GUI script. The script cannot be directly edited but changes made to the template in the script contents will be reflected in the script panel. The ability to edit the script text directly is planned for future releases.
