The List/Detail Views


The main part of the page will display a list of records. When you click on an item in the list, it will display the detail view for that item.

 

Search a list by typing your search criteria into the Filter box.

 

 

The Navigation Folders


The Asset list view and the Personnel list view both contain navigation folders on the left side of the screen. These folders allow you to organize the data into groups and quickly filter the list by clicking on a folder. You may create new folders by right-clicking on the navigation folder area and selecting the "New" option from the menu. Or, rename an existing folder by right-clicking on the folder and selecting the "Rename" menu option.
