Tab Relations
- Package: BASIC
1. General
The structure of the detail view is the same or very similar in most modules (exceptions include modules such as Reports, Email accounts or Templates).
In terms of presentation, the detail view of a record is divided into three tabs:
- Information → Display of fields grouped in blocks as well as various actions
- Relations → Display of linked (referenced) records grouped in blocks as well as various actions
- Dashboard → Display of freely configurable widgets
If colours are configured for picklist fields, these are also displayed for the linked records shown in the Relations tab as well as in the “select record” pop-up.
In the detail view, the Relations tab displays linked (referenced) records grouped by module in blocks.
