Customer / Order Lookup

This example demonstrates a typical order detail page. After selecting a company, the order details are displayed. This example uses a minimal amount of code due to Spread’s advanced data-binding features. Further details are explained below.

The Company grid displays all the customers. Users can select a customer to view all the orders placed by that customer.
Spread’s special scroll bars have been included to allow page up/down navigation and first page/last page navigation.
The order table displays all orders for the selected company. Spread automatically assigns the appropriate cell types for each column. The cell types also restrict and validate user entry; for example, users can only enter valid dates.
Notes can be attached to any customer, allowing easy access to supplemental information for this company (for example, a contact person). A cell note is indicated by the red mark in the top right of the cell.
The order summary grid displays all line items associated with the order and uses the built-in Calc Engine to display the totals.
If the information is too long to display in the cell, Spread can display ellipsis points (…) to visually cue the user. The complete information is then displayed when the user positions the mouse over the cell.
The ship to information grid displays the shipping information and prevents the user from editing the data.
