The New Form button creates a new record. Its function is contextual, meaning it changes depending on what part of the system you are in. If clicked when looking at the Personnel List for example, the New Form button would open a new blank Personnel Record.

The Search button opens a Search Dialog, specific to the list that you are currently viewing. Its functionality is similar to the New Form button, in that it changes depending on your location within the software.

The Stop button cancels the loading of any list in Tailwind, and is helpful when loading long lists, where the data you desire is returned somewhere near the top.

The Refresh List button functions in two ways:

  • If simply clicked, the button reloads the contents of the current list, based upon whatever searching or filtering criteria is currently being applied
  • If the adjacent down arrow is clicked, the button gives the option to Reset List in addition to Reload List. Choosing Reset List will clear any search or filter criteria applied, at the same time refreshing the list.

The Print button prints the contents of the current list to a printer, a fax, an email, the screen, or to a physical file.

For details on the available printing options, see the Printing page.
