Opening forms or applications in the Object List
By default, all the forms and applications on all servers to which you have access are listed in the table. You can arrange items in the list by name, server, or type by clicking the appropriate column headings. You can restrict the list to specific forms, applications, and servers by using any of the following methods:
- To find objects in a specific server, enter all or part of the server name in the Server field, and click Search.
- To find an application, enter all or part of the application name in the Application field, and click Search.
- To find a form, enter all or part of the form name in the Name field, and click Search.
- To restore the full list of forms and applications, clear the Server, Application, and Name fields, and click Search.
- To find an application or form by keyword, enter a word or a phrase from the name, and click Search. The search is conducted only on the Name column. Use the following criteria:
- Enter the name of the form or any sequence of letters contained in the form or application name. For example, if the form name is Purchase Requisition and you enter requ, the form is found.
- Multiple, non-sequential words or search operators are not valid as keywords.
From the AR System home page, you can open a form in the existing open window or in a new window. When you click an entry point on the Application List field, the form opens in the same window, replacing the existing content. When you press Shift+Click (Shift key and the left mouse button on the keyboard) on an entry point on the Application List field, the form opens in a new window or on a new tab (depending on the browser).
To open a form or an application
- Go to http://hostName/arsys/forms.

Perform one of the following steps:
- To open a form, select the form name, and click Open New or Open Search.
- To open an application, select the application and click Open.
