Function keys
Function keys are used to perform many CL/SuperSession tasks. The keys and their uses are displayed at the bottom of each panel. Only the function keys that are available for a panel are displayed. For example, panels with data that may continue over several screens display the backward and forward function keys, F7 and F8, while single-screen panels do not.
The following keys are available from most panels:
| Enter | Causes CL/SuperSession to process the current panel and save the data that is typed in all fields. |
| F1 | Displays help for the current panel, window, or field. |
| F2 | In help screens, gives in-depth information on a panel, field, or function. |
| F3 | Exits the current panel. |
| F4 | Displays a list of valid selections for an input field. If there are only two valid selections, F4 toggles between the two. |
| F5 | Refreshes the current panel by clearing and updating it. |
| F7 | Scrolls backward if more lines exist than can be displayed on the current panel. |
| F8 | Scrolls forward if more lines exist than can be displayed on the current panel. |
| F9 | Retrieves the last command that is issued and
re-enters it on the command line. By pressing F9 repeatedly,
you can retrieve up to 10 previous commands. On panels where F9=Reset appears, the key resets the field's profile type (user, group, or global) one level higher. If the field is already set at the highest level, global, pressing F9 will have no effect. Note: For session profiles,
APPLDEF is the highest level.

| F10 | Moves the cursor to the home position on the action bar. |
| F12 | Cancels the current panel and erases all changes and additions made in any of the fields since you last pressed Enter. |
