In Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 R2, you can use the Page Wizard to add a FactBox to a new page. A FactBox is an area that is located on the right side of a page, and you can use FactBoxes to display other pages, charts, or system parts.
You typically use a FactBox to display information that is related to an item on the main content page. For example, on a page that shows a sales order list, you can use a FactBox to show customer details for a selected sales order in the list.
A FactBox is divided into one or more parts that are arranged vertically. Each part can contain one of the following objects:
- Page of the CardPart or ListPart type.
- Chart.
- System part, including Microsoft Outlook,
Notes, MyNotes, or RecordLinks.
Using the wizard, you can add a FactBox on the following page types:
- Card
- Document
- List
- ListPlus
- Navigate
- Worksheet

If you want to add a FactBox without using the wizard, see Walkthrough: Adding a FactBox to the Customer List Page in the MSDN Library. |
