Definition
The Object Detail View Drawers give users a simple way to open and explore Objects such as Plans, Scenarios, and Events… without leaving their current page. Drawers bring together structured data, comments, and activity history in one place, making it easy to collaborate, review updates, and navigate between connected objects.
Opening a Drawer
As a user, you can open a drawer for a Plan, Scenario, or Event directly from the relevant entry point (plan bar, scenario bar, or event page). This allows you to dive into details without interrupting your workflow or navigating away from the main planning view.
Viewing Details and Collaboration Tools
Once the drawer is open, you can explore all the key information about the object:
- A structured data view that presents the object’s attributes clearly.
- A comments tab where you and your colleagues can exchange feedback directly tied to the object.
- An activity log tab that records all changes and actions with timestamps and user details.
This combination ensures that important context, conversations, and updates stay connected to the object itself.
Structured Data View
Each Object Detail Drawer begins with a structured data view that presents the object’s attributes in a clear and consistent format. This section ensures that users can quickly understand the essentials of the object they are working with, without needing to dig into multiple pages.
- Plan Drawer (e.g., Oct 2025 Plan)
Shows key planning attributes such as creation date, plan type, forecasting method, planning period, and linked scenarios. This provides immediate context for how the plan was set up and which scenarios are connected.
- Scenario Drawer (e.g., Forecast Base)
Highlights its relationship back to the parent plan, along with fields like supply plan, cost master, and assigned events. Users can see which plan the scenario belongs to and whether it is linked to any downstream activities.
- Event Drawer (e.g., Demand Adjustment)
Displays details about the event type, version, segments impacted, active period, and associated scenarios. This makes it clear when and how the event applies, and to which scenarios it contributes.
