==Menu Bar Tabs==

When you are within a [[UTA]] the '''Menu Bar''' will always be present at the top of the screen. The '''tabs''' present will vary depending on your system configuration:

==Navigation Bar Tabs==

When you are viewing a Level 1, 2 or 3 record you will see the '''Navigation Bar'''. Most of the tabs on the Navigation Bar are pre-defined within [[SmartSimple]], and are either enabled or disabled by the System Configuration:

These tabs are created by entering the desired name of the tab in the '''Tab Name''' section of the [[Custom Field]](s) you wish to have on the tab:

In the list view of the [[Custom Fields]] on the Settings page, any fields that are stored on tabs are clearly marked.

==Custom Field Tabs==

{{UseAsTab}}

The '''Custom Field Tab''' will be displayed with the '''Field Name''' (or '''Caption''' if used).

If you tick '''Use As Tab''' <u>and</u> fill in a Tab Name then you will create a '''Custom Field Tab''' on a '''Navigation Bar Tab'''.

===Custom Field Tabs vs. Navigation Bar Tabs===

'''Page Loading:'''

* All custom fields stored on all '''Custom Field Tabs''' are loaded when the page loads.

* Custom fields stored on '''Navigation Bar Tabs''' are not loaded until the relevant tab is selected.

'''Saving:'''

* '''Custom Field Tabs''': you can switch between them without saving. You must save the entire page, which saves all Custom Field Tabs at the same time.

* '''Navigation Bar Tabs''': you must save the current page prior to switching to a different Navigation Bar Tab.
