Editable field, list, or editable grid is a feature that allows users to edit more records at once, directly from the view, without a need to go to edit form of a record.
Editable field, list, or editable grid is a feature that allows users to edit more records at once, directly from the view, without a need to go to edit form of a record.


To set a field to be editable directly in the view, set the field's '''Kind''' to one of the edit options.
To set a field to be editable directly in the view, set the field's '''Kind''' to one of the edit options:
* '''Edit''': All changes to this kind of field must be saved. This requires that there's a Save button (only available in the public view - in the list of records accessed from the home screen).
* '''DirectEdit''': Changes are changed immediately. This can be used also on lookup or associated views that don't have the Save button.


The main difference between Edit and DirectEdit is that changes made on fields with the Edit option, need to be saved. Since the Save button for view changes is available only in the Public view (list of records accessed from Home), DirectEdit option saves changes in field immediately after editing, without the need for user to click Save.

For the use on lookup or associated views, you need to use the DirectEdit option only, otherwise changes on different records will not be saved correctly.
