Cost accounting software users are often faced with complex data entry screens. For example, government contractors need to be able to define a broad range of contracts and job tasks. Aldebaron has divided some of these SYMPAQ SQL screens with tabs, in order to clarify function and minimize confusion.

But even in the simplest interface, there will always be questions:

• What does that field do?
• Can I leave it blank?
• Why didn't anyone tell me about it?

To help answer these and other questions, SYMPAQ SQL features field-level Help (also known as "Tool Tips"). When the user's mouse passes over any data entry field, a popup window briefly explains how to use that field.

To see a simulation of field-level Help, move your mouse over the screen below. Note that the popup windows are displayed only for the fields that allow user entry:

Aldebaron understands that cost accounting software works for government contractors only when users have adequate Help with data entry. That's why SYMPAQ SQL features field-level Help for every single user entry field -- well over a thousand fields across the system.
