1.2.6. Drag-and-Drop

The application supports drag-and-drop functionality for screens which use the Item Number widget. Using this functionality, you have the ability to drag an Item Number from one screen to another screen.

For example, let's say you have two xTuple ERP screens open on your desktop at the same time: The Bill of Materials (BOM) for Item XYZ and also the Quantity on Hand (QOH) by Item display. In this example, the QOH display does not have an Item Number entered in it yet.

To drag Item Number XYZ from the BOM screen to the QOH display, simply click your mouse on the Item Number in the BOM—and then drag the Item Number over to the Item Number field on the QOH display. You may now QUERY the display to get QOH information on Item XYZ.
