Resolving Unsaved Changes

When leaving a screen that has changed, the application will recognize it and suggest two options.

  • Leave will discard the changes
  • Stay will bring you back to the screen to review and save the changes

Application Grid and Tree view

The application shows grids and tree views in different screens. Some patterns are used and described below.

  • The three dots on a row provide additional actions for the record (i.e. Edit and Delete in the above example)
  • Depending on the context, records can sometimes be filtered by clicking on the funnel icon at the top right of the screen
  • Global action buttons will always be visible above the grid (i.e. Add connection in the above example)
