This feature provides modal popup dialogs for action screens involving dialogs. A modal dialog is a child window which requires the user to interact with it before they can return to the parent application. This feature enhances performance and allows the user to see the context from where the action was launched. Previously, the user choose an action, the screen refreshed and took the user to a new screen. With modal dialogs, a new window pops up on top of the previous screen. The previous screen is viewable, but no actions may be taken on that screen while the modal dialog is active.
