Updated: March 9, 2011

The Enterprise Portal toolbar is used to show actions that are specific to a grid on a FastTab in a form.
Example of a callout of an Enterprise Portal toolbarFor view forms
In view forms, the toolbar above the line items grid should not include actions for creating, deleting, or modifying lines. The toolbar above line items grids should only include a Details action and any additional actions for opening related information for the selected line item.
For edit forms
In edit forms, any FastTabs that contain a grid that can be edited should include Add, Remove, and Details buttons as the first three actions on the toolbar for that FastTab.
