Posting
Posting of data is done in a uniform manner throughout the application with the intent being to minimize the amount of time and the number of keystrokes required to enter or edit data.

Add, Edit, and Delete operations are carried out by either selecting the operation from the top menu Edit submenu, or more quickly via the speedbuttons on the toolbar under the menu. When the ‘Add’ operation is selected, the user will know that they are in ‘Add’ (or insert) mode by the blue background color of the data entry controls. In ‘Edit’ mode, the background color will be yellow, thus warning the user they are not in ‘Add’ mode and are editing an existing record. Controls in which the background remains white when in either Add or Edit mode are read-only. The user cannot accidentally add or change any data unless in either add or edit mode. A delete operation requires the user to confirm the action. At any time, the user may abort an edit operation by pressing the ‘cancel’ button. No actual changes are made to the database until the user posts the record via the menu or post speedbutton The post operation will be rejected under the following conditions: the user enters invalid data, some associated data is missing, or the entered data is inconsistent with other data. In that case, the user must either correct the entry or cancel the operation.
