Understanding UI

The AtroCore system comes with a user-friendly configurable interface that includes a number of views and panels, where entity records are displayed and managed.

Views can be shown in the main or pop-up window. They consist of the panels, which can be configured by the administrator. Usually these are structured in a way to provide you with key information on the record management.

If you want to make changes to some entity (e.g. add new fields, modify its views or relations), please, contact your administrator.

List View

The list view is a default view page that appears when any entity is selected in the navigation menu, where the records belonging to this entity are displayed. It has its own layout, which can be configured by the administrator.

The list view page shows a table of records with main fields configured for each entity and includes:

• left sidebar (1);
• taskbar (2);
• breadcrumb navigation including the page name (3);
• search and filtering panel (4);
• records list (5).

Here you can change entity records order in the list by clicking any sortable column title; this will sort the column either ascending or descending. Please, note that the default order of entity records is predefined in the Entity Manager. To change it, please, contact the administrator.

The total number of entity records and the number of current records on the list page are displayed on the list view page:

On the list view page, you can perform actions with separate or multiple entity records at once via the single record and mass actions menus correspondingly.

Plate View

The plate view is a variant of the list view, in which all entity records are displayed as plates:

To switch to this view, click the plates icon located in the upper right corner of the list view page of entity records.

The mass actions and singe record actions are also available here, just like for the list view.

You can configure the plate view layout by selecting the desired item number to be displayed in a row (1–6) and defining the record field to be used for sorting via the corresponding drop-down menus:

Within the AtroPIM system the plate view is available only for products.

Mass Actions

Mass actions allow you to perform operations on multiple selected entity records simultaneously, improving efficiency when managing large datasets. You can select records using checkboxes and apply various operations like removal, updates, exports, and relationship management.

For detailed information about available mass actions, selection methods, and step-by-step instructions, see the Mass Actions documentation.

Single Record Actions

To see the actions available for separate records in the list, click the single record actions menu icon located on the right of the record:

By default, the following actions are available for all entities:

• View – to go to the detail view of the record.
• Edit – to go to the detail view of the record in the edit mode.
• Delete – to remove the selected record.
• Bookmark/Unbookmark – to select the record as the bookmarked.

Some actions, such as Compare are added by modules. In this case by Synchronization module.

To modify the single record actions list, please, contact your administrator.

Small List View

Small list views are panels and pop-up windows with data on the entities related to the given entity record, shown in the main window always together with the detail view. Each entity may have as many related entities as needed in accordance with the administrator's configurations.

The following actions are available for the small list view panels:

• General actions – applicable to all records on the related entities panel:

  

  • Refresh – to refresh the related entities list on the panel;
  • Create – to create a new record for the related entity;
  • Select – to create a relation between the entity record, which is opened in the main window and the entity record, which was chosen in the pop-up window.

Please, keep in mind that choosing some record in the pop-up window will reassign it to the entity record, which is opened in the main window. The previous relation will be dropped, if the relation is one-to-many.

• Single record actions – applicable to each record of the related entities separately. The list of actions here is usually the same as on the list view for this entity.

Detail View

The detail view page appears when the entity record name is clicked in the corresponding list of records or from the Full Form button in Small List View. It has its own layout, which can be configured by the administrator.

The detail view page shows detailed information about the selected entity record and all its relations and includes:

• Left sidebar (1);
• taskbar (2);
• breadcrumb navigation including the page name (3);
• actions and tabs panel (4);
• record details, where detailed information about the currently open entity record is displayed (5).

The detail view page may also include:

• the OVERVIEW panel and some other panels that are either default for a certain entity or configured by the administrator:

  

• several small list views for the related records, if these were configured by the administrator:

  

• side view with additional information concerning record management and activity stream, if activated for the entity.

  

Navigation through the existing entity records can be done on the detail view pages using the corresponding buttons:

To edit the fields data on the detail view page, use in-line editing.

Main Actions

The following actions are available for all entity records by default on the detail view page:

• Edit – click the Edit button to make changes in the given record.
• Delete – select the Delete option from the actions menu to remove the given record.
• Duplicate – select the Duplicate option from the actions menu to go to the record creation page and enter the unique values for the record fields to be used for duplication.

Some actions, such as Translate and Compare are added by modules. In this case by Translations and Synchronization modules.

Create View

In-Line Editing

In-line editing allows you to quickly change values one by one. This ensures a quick change of field values and reduces the number of clicks required.

Enter the required data, then press the 'Update' button. If you switch to full edit mode before updating the field, any data you have entered but not updated will be retained.

Due to restrictions imposed by the administrator or system adjustments, some fields cannot be edited here.

It is typically used to display the details of a record for a related entity, or when the 'View' option is selected from the 'Single record actions' menu on the 'List view' page. It uses the same layout as the detail view page, but with some restrictions.

Breadcrumb Navigation

AtroCore comes with breadcrumb navigation on each page in the system. Breadcrumb navigation is a form of a path-style clickable navigation, which links the user back to the prior website page in the overall online route. It reveals the path the user took to arrive to the given page. The > symbol separates out the hierarchical search order from beginning to end and may look something like: Home Page > Section Page > Subsection Page.
