Tree structure
The modules contain submodules (previously know as cards). These are organized in the tree structure of the menu. To use this tree structure:
- Click
to expand a branch. - Click
to collapse a branch.
To open a submodule, click its name.
Breadcrumbs
The 'breadcrumb bar' on top shows the location of the page that you have opened in the menu tree structure.
Example:
Remark: A module takes over the name of a submodule if it only contains one submodule.
Example: If you only have carpet orders, the menu Production orders will be Carpet order instead. The breadcrumb will however still show the original menu name.
