Interacting with records

Depending on the type of data being displayed, links are available in the application and are highlighted in blue.  Selecting a link will perform the following actions:

  • Phone numbers – iMessage, Facetime, Call (iPhone only), SMS (iPhone only)
  • Email addresses – Mail, iMessage, Facetime. Only the native device email clients are supported.
  • Website addresses – Launch website browser (preview) in current application
  • Address information – Launch Apple Maps and search for the address

A dialog box will be displayed asking you which operation you wish to perform where more than one choice is available.

Note:  The ability to interact with other applications depends on your configuration settings.  If you cannot interact with a field, please contact your iEnterprise Mobile™ Server Administrator.

When launching a website, we do not launch a full browser.  The facility is designed to offer a preview of a webpage, as a result, the preview may not be fully operational.  The screen will refresh in the iPhone to display the page with a 'Back' link.  On an iPad, the preview is displayed in the right side of the application, so record lists are still available:
