Kinetic active field just jumps to another box

Does anyone else have this issue of the active field jumping to another field during the initial seconds of the page loading?

See here in PO entry, the user can start typing into Part field. The active field will just jump to Order above it resulting in an error because we end up typing half the part number into Part, the other half the part number into Order.

We’ve only customised this screen on a layer to make it more easy to navigate for our users.

However for the avoidance of doubt, this Kinetic behavior also happens on an base screen. Here in Customer Shipment entry, we can add a new line to the pack, start typing into the Line field and the active field just jumps into Order Number field above it.

Very annoying when you’re trying to work fast and the error just stops you in your tracks.

Yep all day every day. Its obnoxious. After it happens to you enough times you will learn to pause and wait for them to grab the focus so you can grab it back before typing. Definitely slows down the process.

Yeah happens to us all the time. Engineering workbench is where I notice it most. I’ll be adding a part number for as a material then all of a sudden I’m typing in the material sequence…
