"Cards" have different User Interface (UI) colors that represent something specific; for example, a Case or a Client. However, it is primarily used to identify where you are in the application at any given time.
"Views" are available in all Cards, but each Card has their own set of views. Each view displays specific information. Such as, Cases, Clients, Time Records, Expenses, Invoices, etc.
When describing where you are in LEX247, we always start with the Card, followed by the View. Below are various examples...
- Main Card > Cases
- Main Card > Time Records
- Main Card > Invoices
- Case Card > Details
- Case Card > Participants
- Case Card > Invoices
- Client Card > Contacts
Click on the headers below to expand/collapse the contents.
