Hi all, I’d like to confirm I’m correctly navigating from products to BOMs and back to products. and in this case, if the web client actually provides a superior user experience.
I won’t type everything out as the pictures are really telling the story.
6.Follow the product link in the Desktop Client and reach a dead-end. However, with the Web Client, the Related Records button is still available and you can keep navigating to products and BOMs without end.
This is because on the web client you opening the link to the product and not the input line.
In the web client to open a line, you need not click on any of its link or you can select the row and click on the “Open” button in the toolbar of the One2Many list.
If you open just the dialog but you can open a new tab for the product if you click on the “Open” icon with CTRL pressed. This is the equivalent action to opening the Many2One link from the list view of the web client.
Yes we need to have small different workflow between desktop and web because of limitation specific to each platform.
Is this the dialog you are referring to? If so, holding CTRL before clicking does not seem to make a difference. The result is the same as the first screenshot - a new popup window (not a new tab) with no “Related Records” button. I expect I am not understanding you correctly.
View/Edit the Variant listed in the BOM line e.g. to access product documentation (attached links to documents in a DMS), OEM Mfr PN (Variant Attribute), Suppliers, past POs, stock on hand, other BOMs the Variant is listed on, etc.
In the Desktop client, access the context menu for the BOM line and select Product > Edit. In the Web client, left-click the BOM line.
