Types of Screen Objects

There are two types of objects you can define during screen design:

A screen is the view of the system for the user. Each online procedure step created in dialog design is associated with one screen.

A screen template is a definition of a part of a screen, typically a part that you may want repeated in the same position on many or all screens such as the name of your business. Because it can be used repeatedly, a template saves design time. It also gives screens uniformity.
