Many data entry screens in Power Clock contain lookup fields. Lookup fields are used anytime an Employee ID, Job ID, Phase ID, other ID code is required.

A lookup field helps in entering the correct ID by showing the closet matching entry as you type. Usually, you only need to type the first 2 or 3 letters of the ID. When you see the correct ID, press Tab to move to the next field on the screen. The complete ID will be filled in for you.

Click the arrow button to open a file browser showing all valid selections. You may add, edit, or delete records from the file browser assuming you have the required security.
