Table Caption Syntax

Here you can learn to use Table caption syntax.

Use the following syntax:

  • Use placeholders for field values: {<number>}.

    Example: For the fields Last Name (1), First Name (2) and Company (3) define the Format-Text "{2} {1} of {3}" to display "John Doe of Aurea Software" in the table caption for KP.

  • Separation characters (space, colon, comma, semicolon, dash, parentheses etc.) are omitted if the previous and/or next field does not have a value.
  • Use the Enter key to insert a carriage return.

    If the widget using the table caption supports it, line breaks in the table caption text are preserved when the text is displayed in Aurea CRM.Web. Example - upcoming items in the calendar's sidebar, tooltips for items in the Resources view.

    In tab titles and calendar items, only the first line of a multi-line table caption is displayed.

  • Use the conditional placeholder {?} to cover different strings in case one or more field values are empty.

    Example: Defining "{?}Address: {1} {2}, {3}\n{?}Phone: {4}" e.g. for FI results in e.g. "Phone: +43-1-87855" if the address fields are empty.
