Detail pages


About detail pages

When you open, for example, a case, a document, a contact, or a saved search, its detail page opens on a new tab. You can have multiple detail pages open simultaneously, and you can work on multiple items at the same time.


The detail pages

Icons on the detail page titles

The icons on a detail page indicate what type of detail page the tab displays:

  • Case detail page: A case folder icon
  • Document detail page: An icon which depicts the type of document, for example a Word icon or Excel icon.
  • Contact detail page: A business card icon

Unsaved work

You cannot close a detail page that contains unsaved work. You must save your work or click Cancel to discard any changes before you can close the detail page.

Arranging your detail pages

Open detail pages can be arranged as you like by dragging them with your mouse, placing them in the order you consider necessary.

Close detail pages

Detail pages can be closed by clicking the X icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page. You can also right-click the detail page to open the page menu and select how the page is to be closed:

  • Close: Closes the active detail page. If you have unsaved work, you will be prompted to save or cancel the work.
  • Close all tabs: Closes all open detail pages. If you have unsaved work on any of the pages, you will be prompted to save or cancel the work for each page containing the unsaved work. Detail pages that do not contain unsaved work will be closed.
  • Close all tabs but this: Closes all open detail pages except the active open detail page (the detail page you right-clicked to open the menu). If you have unsaved work on any of the detail pages, you will be prompted to save or cancel the work for each page containing the unsaved work. Detail pages that do not contain unsaved work will be closed.

Pinning detail pages

You can pin a detail page to the client. Pinned detail pages will remain open while you work but can be closed normally or through the page menu. Pinned detail pages will also be opened whenever the WorkZone Client launches and can be used as a quick way to have a set of favorite or important pages ready for you when the WorkZone Client is launched.

You can click the pin icon on the detail page title pin and click the unpin icon to unpin the page. You can also right-click the detail page to open the page menu and select one of the following:

  • Pin: Pins the active open detail page. the Pin option is inaccessible if the page is already pinned.
  • Unpin: Unpins the active open detail page. the Unpin option is inaccessible if the page is not pinned.
  • Pin all: Pins all open detail pages.
  • Unpin all: Unpins all open pinned detail pages.
  • Unpin all but this: Unpins all open detail pages except the active detail page (the page you right-clicked to open the menu).

Some pages cannot be pinned, for example dynamic lists and search pages.

Adding or removing a detail page to the Favorites list

Click the favorite icon to add an item (case, document or contact person) to or remove an item from the Favorites list in the details page.

For more information, see About favorites

Meta data panel

The meta data panel on the detail page shows the meta data fields related to the case, the document, or the contact. Use the divider to display more or fewer fields on the meta data panel.

If you have the CONFIGADM access code, you can configure the case detail page (add, remove, resize, or reorder the displayed meta data fields.)

See Working with WorkZone Client configurations.

Character counters on text fields

The total number of characters available for content in a text field is displayed in gray text in the upper right hand corner of the field. The number to the left of the slash is the number of characters used and the number to the right of the slash is the total number of characters available. Some text fields can contain 4,000 characters while other text fields can contain less, for example the Case text field can contain 4,000 characters while the Note text field can contain 2,000 characters.

For text field containing formatting options, such as Note text fields, the hidden formatting codes will also be included in the total amount of used characters.

The Detail tabs

At the bottom of each detail page for a case, document, or contacts, you will find detail tabs. Each of the detail tabs has a small ribbon with relevant features.

For example, if you have a document detail page open, the detail tabs display detail lists of the cases and contacts linked to this document. For searches, the list of search results is displayed.
