MoveBoardOrders open in windows on top of the page you're on, so you never lose your place. Storage customers, invoices and long-distance trips open in the same kind of window.
Open a window
- Double-click an order anywhere — the orders list, the dashboard, the calendar, dispatch, a search result. One click only highlights the row; the second opens it.
- On a touch screen, tap twice.
- With the keyboard, move to the order's link and press Enter.
Opening an order that's already open brings its window back to the front instead of opening a second copy.
Work with several at once
- Open as many as you like. Each one keeps its own unsaved changes.
- Press a window to bring it to the front.
- Go to another page from the menu — your windows come with you.
- Drag a window by its top bar to move it (on screens 960 pixels wide or more). It always keeps its top bar on screen.
Put a window away
Press Minimise (the – at the top right), press Esc, or click the dimmed page around the window. The window goes into a chip in the dock along the bottom of the screen, with its order number in the order's status colour.
- Press the chip to bring the window back exactly as you left it — even half-typed changes are still there.
- Press the chip of the window in front to put it away again.
- A gold dot on a chip means that window has changes that aren't saved yet.
- The × on a chip closes that window.
- Open windows always end above the dock, so the dock never covers the window you're working in.
When the dock is full
The dock is always one row. When there are more chips than fit, the last place in the row says +3 more (or however many don't fit). Press it to see every minimised window, newest first:
- Press a window in the list to bring it back.
- Press its × to close it.
- Close all closes every minimised window. If any of them has unsaved changes, MoveBoard asks first: Cancel, Keep the unsaved ones (closes only the others), or Close all without saving.
Press Esc or anywhere outside the list to put it away.
The dock keeps up to 10 minimised windows. Minimising an 11th closes the one that was minimised longest ago. A window with unsaved changes is never closed this way — MoveBoard skips it and closes the next oldest. If all of them have unsaved changes, they all stay (each with its gold dot).
If a pop-up is open inside the window, Esc closes the pop-up first.
Close a window
Press Close (the × at the top right), or the × on its chip. If nothing is unsaved, it closes at once.
If something isn't saved, the window comes to the front and asks Save your changes? — "This order has changes that are not saved yet." (or storage tenant, invoice, trip):
| Button | What happens |
|---|---|
| Cancel | Nothing. The window stays open with your changes. |
| Close without saving | Your changes are dropped and the window closes. |
| Save and close | MoveBoard saves, then closes. If the save is refused (or you cancel a question it asks, such as order updates), the window stays open and shows why. |
How saving works inside an order is in The order window, card by card.
If something goes wrong
If a window can't load, it shows "That order could not be opened." (or "That storage tenant…", "That invoice…", "That trip…"). Close it and try again; if it keeps happening, the record may have been deleted or you may not have permission to see it.
