Common UI actions


When you navigate to any UI in Abend-AID Web, the UI displays options that you can use to perform actions.

Some UI options might differ based on the feature that you are using.

Options that you select and values that you specify might be retained in some circumstances and discarded in others. For more information, see State management in Abend-AID Web.

The following table describes the common UI options that you can see and use across the Abend-AID Web UIs. Options unique to a feature are described within the feature-specific topics.

State management in the Abend-AID Web UI

When you reorder columns, sort values within the table, choose the number of records that you want to view in the table, or choose to view a page (pagination), the selections persist on the UI.

However, your selections do not persist in the following scenarios:

  • You log on to CES with your user credentials in one web browser, switch to another web browser, and again log on to CES with the same credentials.

    Example

    You log on to CES by using Google Chrome and then switch to Mozilla Firefox to log on to CES with the same credentials. The selections are not retained.

  • You log on to CES with your user credentials in one web browser, and then open another web browser in incognito mode, and again log on to CES with the same credentials.
  • You log on to CES as a guest user and then switch browsers.
  • You log on to CES with your user credentials and log out, and then log on to the same CES instance by using another user account.
