Keyboard Shortcuts

When you see a button with an underlined letter, e.g. Print, you can click Alt+P (hold down the Alt key on your keyboard, and while it’s down, click P) to click that button without using the mouse.

In many places, like Reports and the Person Lookup tool, hitting the Enter key is the same thing as hitting the most prominent/obvious button on screen. In these cases, it’s the same as hitting the Search and Print buttons, respectively.

You can also use the Tab key to move quickly between fields. In the Person Lookup tool, your cursor ends up by default in the field for the person’s family name. Type in that value, then hit Tab to go to the first name field, enter that, then hit Enter to search, all with your hands never leaving the keyboard.

Looking for a specific value in a drop down menu? Try typing in the text box to bring up a list of options containing the letter you have typed.

When entering an address, enter the zip/postal code and if the city and state fields are empty they will automatically populate if known.
