Item Details

The Item Details page is the main dashboard for reviewing and editing all information associated with a specific item.

A standard Item Details page opens on the Summary tab by default and also includes Images/Links, Activity, and History tabs. If the item is a basket item, a Contents tab will appear as well. The available sections and panels may vary depending on the item's type.

Opening an Item's Details Page

There are several ways to navigate to an item's Item Details page.

From the Items Dashboard

On the Items Dashboard (left sidebar, Items), click in the Search for item field and enter the first few characters of the item's name or number. A list of matching items will appear — click the item to open its details page.

You can use the filter drop-downs to narrow down the list. Then open an item's details page in any of the following ways:

  • Double-click the item row.
  • Check the box next to the item row and click the View Record button at the bottom of the page.
  • Click the three-dot icon at the far right of the item row and select View Record from the context menu.

Click the search icon in the page header (or press Ctrl-Shift-F) and enter part of the item's name or number. Click the matching result to open its details page.

From an Item Hover Card

In many places where an item's name appears — such as in the History tab — you can hover over the name to see a summary card and click the Details link to go to the item's details page. You can also click the item name directly.

Editing Item Details

Tags

You can add or remove tags from the Tags field in the sidebar. To add a tag, type its name into the field. To add multiple tags, separate them with a comma or space.

Tag Formatting

Tags should only use letters, numbers, hyphens (-), and underscores (_). Entering a comma or space will create a tag from the characters before it and begin a new tag with the characters after it.

Multi-Word Tags

Since tags cannot contain spaces, use an underscore or hyphen to separate words — for example, another_tag or extra-tag. You can also use camelCase, such as myGreatTag.

To remove tags:

  • Click the small x on the left side of a specific tag to remove that tag only.
  • Click the X at the right side of the Tags field to remove all tags from the item.

See Where Tags Can Be Used In Auctria for more information.
