Note: A functional object on the base screen or pop-up screen must be set as the destination. The destination
cannot be a functional object on a different screen, e.g., a functional object on the base screen cannot be
used as the destination from a pop-up screen. Functional objects on sheets also cannot be used as the
destination. When creating a Multifunction Object on a sheet, the destination must be a functional object
with a specified ID number on a base screen or pop-up screen using that sheet.
