Details

Design details pages when you want to support users in managing or browsing specific details of a business entity or event. For example, the Customer Sales page shows a certain set of details about a customer, namely the sales numbers, and provides the user with different viewing options.

Details pages are a versatile means to support analysis and management tasks in a specific entity context (given by the page title). Details pages can show persistent data about the entity/event in addition to show options for how data is viewed or filtered.

Details page guidelines

From the user’s perspective, the following are qualities of a well-designed details page:

  • Has a page title that clearly identifies the context for the information presented in the page.

  • Is optimized for showing one particular set of details, and giving the user means to work with them.

  • Presents information in the page in such a way that the hierarchy can be understood when read from top to bottom.

  • If present, fields that control which data is presented in another FastTab come before that FastTab.

  • If present, fields that control how data is presented in another FastTab come after that FastTab.
