There are a number of keyboard shortcuts in the Exor application that can save time, especially when undertaking large volumes of data entry. These often replace the need for mouse clicks which can slow data entry down.
List of Keyboard Shortcuts in Exor
| Key(s) | Action | Description |
| tab / shift+tab | next / previous field | |
| PgDn / PgUp | scroll down / up | In forms where a scrollbar appears, PgDn / PgUp can be used instead of clicking the scrollbar. |
| ctrl+PgDn / ctrl+PgUp | next / previous block | In forms with multiple ‘blocks’ (areas for data entry, e.g. the Elements form NM0105), to move between the blocks, i.e. in this case from the element details to the attributes section of the form. |
| F10 | commit / save | |
| F7 | enter query | |
| shift+F2 | count query | shows how many records the query will retrieve |
| F8 | execute query | |
| F6 | insert record | Creates a new blank record in the current block. |
| F4 | duplicate record | Usually used in combination with F6, this can be a time-saver when entering multiple rows with similar data – it copies all the data from the previous row, then you can amend as required before saving. |
| F3 | duplicate field / current date | In character or number fields this behaves in a similar fashion to F4, i.e. if used in multi-row blocks like the Work Order Priorities form (MAI0132), this copies the contents of the same field from the previous record. In date fields it inserts the current date |
| F9 | list of values | Lists the valid values for any field with an arrow next to it. |
| F2 | list tab pages | In forms with multiple tabs, e.g. Asset Metamodel (NM0410), F2 brings up a list of the tabs, then you can use the arrow keys and enter to move between them. |
| shift+ctrl+F1 | document manager | In forms where documents can be associated, this opens the document association form |
| shift+F1 | display error | If an error is encountered, this can give more details to pass to support. |
| alt+F4 | close/cancel | In query mode this cancels a query. Otherwise it closes the current form (without saving, although you may be prompted to save changes before the form closes) |
