MCL: Freeze 1st column

(where checkboxes Freeze first X)

  • improves overview
  • it is difficult to know what the height of each list should be
  • will vary, so no general criteria - status: set per app (where it makes sense)
  • need to agree on a default behaviour
  • there is conflict if we have more and more MCLs with check boxes
colourYellowtitleTBD
  • in cases where we have check-boxes, freeze the first 2 columns?
  • PO would agree with SIG on how many columns need to be freezed

MCL: Sortable table headers
  • sorting of table headers should be available consistently across apps
  • helpful to have a sort indicator, to
indicates
  • indicate that a column is sortable
  • pageable lists: some columns are not sortable
  • all not pageable lists should have sortable headers
  • Sara in chat: Just wondering--if not a MCL thing then for the future--just wondering: like in a spreadsheet can I sort on Column A and then on Column B in conjunction
  • for paged lists: yes
  • for non-paged lists: no
  • would be great to have it for paged and non-pages lists

YES?



MCL: Line numbers
  • add line numbers to MCL result lists
  • important to have in mind that numbers are usually independant from the line content
  • first line will always be #1
  • there should be an indicator that it is a row number; because there are some exceptions where it is not
  • additionally, numbers could give an ancor for clicking to see more details → no, rather name, barcode (depending on the use case)
  • anchored text instead of anchored rows; text that looks like a link
  • therefore define columns with click ancor as never hide
  • Kimie in chat: If we add line numbers, and then the user drags and drops a row, will the numbers be able to update at the moment of the drag and drop? → John: yes, they have to

MCL: Search & filter
  • full search and sort for the sub-MCLs is needed
  • An option to pop out a sub-MCL into its own full screen window with search and filter options
  • make available at accordeon level

MCL: export lists
  • export option helps as more functionality in Excel
  • e.g. export is available for some MCLs in orders
  • does not help in every situation;
  • but would be nice as an additional option

Modals: movable
  • Modals or other popups need to move
  • should not be fixed in place on the screen
  • In various Apps functional Modals be moved out of the way while in use but at the same time cover over information that is needed while using the Modal.
  • Modals need to be able to be moved.
  • Not all modals are "Look-up" modals, some are "Fill-out" modals and so info is on the screen now hidden
  • e.g.: in the Receiving App, the Receiving Note.
  • Additionally, I often want to copy and then paste into the pop-up modal info from the screen behind, but no longer can.
  • I would hope that if I can move it out of the way, I then would also be able to copy off it to pate into fields in the popup
  • my demo example would get be when I am creating a piece in the Receiving App.

Modals: size
  • Ability to change size of modal
  • it would be helpful to be able to change the size of the popup
  • e.g. enlarge to view more lines / more information


Modals: Warning modals
  • Warning Modals needed when deleting any record in any App when it is the source of truth for other records
  • To avoid dead links, or even disappearing records and information, when deleting a record to which other Apps link or connect or downstream display information regarding, a warning modal should appear informing the user that if they confirm the deletion then the following other records in such-and-such apps will be unlinked or deleted as well


Modals: Shortcut for ENTER key
  • In the User Management SIG today (6/29/2022) it was discussed that it would be convenient to have the ENTER key perform the Primary button function on a modal. 


Wildcards: standardized

  • Wildcards (truncation marks) need to be standardized across all Apps
  • Currently depending on what App either % or * is the truncation mark to use. 


Date formatting

  • How Dates are formatted and entered


Spaces handling

  • Example: In Inventory 'extra' spaces are eliminated,
  • while in Orders they can exist and impact search & retrieval:
    • From Orders: Newspaper  of  extra  spaces  becomes Newspaper of extra spaces in Inventory.
  • If you copy Newspaper of extra spaces from Inventory to search in Orders by Orders Lines, you retrieve nothing, until you add the spaces back


Search: lowercase vs. cap
  • Use of lowercase vs CAP re: searching not consistent,
  • barcode example (in my case, B891369-MHC vs. B891369-mhc) or
  • KW in Inventory searching for something that is an Identifier for example, in my case (MHeb* works but not (MHEB* ... ... different in other apps
