Tab order within workspace is unexpected
Answer ID 5981   |   Last Review Date 02/19/2026

In tabbing within a workspace, why does the tab jump all over (not in sequential order)?

Environment:

Workspaces
.NET console
Oracle B2C Service

Resolution:

Select the field where tabbing goes awry > right click > select "set Parent Table's tab indexes from top to bottom".

Resetting this at the point the tabbing order breaks can resolve this behavior.

For more information on workspace tab indexes, refer to the 'Behavior properties' section in the Online Help User Guide documentation. To access Oracle B2C Service manuals and documentation online, refer to the Documentation for Oracle B2C Service Products.

NOTE: Since the BUI console utilizes a web browser, the order which Tab navigates through the workspace is controlled by the browser and the workspace table structure.  If pressing tab results in an unexpected cursor movement, make sure that the workspace's table layout does not have any unexpected empty cells.
