Properties view

The properties view is a read-only page displaying details of a row selected from an entity view. Properties views are provided for Transportation Smartbench supported entities. Properties views also include important reference objects to the entity. The header of a property page displays the entity type and ID.

Access the properties view by selecting one row in an entity view, then click Properties.

Properties pages can also be accessed by clicking on a hyperlink in an entity view or by right-clicking when the entity ID appears as editable on a grid view.

The properties view is a non-modal dialog box. While the view is open, a user can access views behind it, perform new searches, and process operations. Properties views open to a default initial size and can be resized manually by dragging on view borders. A properties view is displayed until explicitly closed.

Users can view the properties of a different object while the properties view is open by selecting another row in an entity view of the same type. To switch from viewing one entity type to another (For example, from load properties to shipment leg properties), select the properties operation from the other entity view after selecting an object in that view.

Properties views are segmented into sections. The order these sections appear in the properties view can be customized. If a certain properties page section is not normally viewed, that section can be removed from the view. The sections and elements available for display vary depending on entity type. You can also customize each section to display the selected columns based on your need.
