Scenario
Your chosen Cradle ‘Form’ or ‘View’ is not showing the item category you want to see. It may be that you select a different form, if one has been defined showing the item information you want. You could also select one of the automatically generated forms that contains the category or redefine the one you already have. However, this is not always possible as the user may not have the correct privileges. The CREATE_DEFS privilege is required to allow them to change it. All this may just be over the top for a quick peek at a value.
Solution
Select ‘Information’ from the ‘Item’ ribbon for a quick view of all the details for the selected item.
The Item Information dialog can be used to view categories, item attributes, dates, calculations and even the logic matches in a rule set.
