Field Prompts

A field prompt is a text label that identifies a selection or entry field.

The following list explains guidelines for field prompts:

Place the prompt near the field labels.
Use the same prompt for an attribute wherever it appears on a layout.
CA Gen keeps a list of each prompt used to implement each attribute across the system and allows you to choose among them.
Capitalize the first letter of the prompt; make all other letters (except for proper nouns) lowercase.
CA Gen creates default prompts in all capitals. We recommend that you delete these prompts and enter prompts with initial capitals instead.
Right-justify all prompts.
Keep field prompts short.
Assign a mnemonic to each selection field to allow the user to use the keyboard instead of the mouse.
