The Screen Bar

 

The Screen Bar is located at the top left of every screen in PipeChain Supply. It contains all the functions you need in order to move between the various screens in PipeChain.

Navigating in PipeChain using the Screen Bar resembles navigating in a web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.

  1. By clicking the Back button, you move to the screen you viewed previously. If you have backtracked to a screen by clicking the Back button, then clicking the Forward button will take you back to the screen you backtracked from.

  2. By clicking on the Overview/Detail button, you toggle between an overview screen and a detail screen. An overview screen is a list of items, such as products, suppliers or customers. Selecting one of the items and clicking the Overview/Detail button will take you to the detail screen, which contains detailed data for that item (e.g. product, supplier or customer). Clicking the Overview/Detail button again will take you back to the overview screen.
