Throughout Jim2 different coloured text and backgrounds are used in various fields. Below is an explanation of these colours:
All station level options are coloured blue, whilst global options are coloured black. In the image below, Fast Invoicing is station level. However, in this instance Global for all stations is blue until ticked, then it changes to black.

In the list header, double clicking on the wording at the beginning of the Group field will turn the field green to indicate that group selection is inverted. For example, select stock that is not in these groups.
Active lists are coloured blue. Published lists are underlined and coloured blue.
|
This does not apply to all lists, ie. Email and Documents.
