Tabs

Within many features, it's possible to work on multiple tasks together. For example, you may have a couple of work orders open, and at the same time that you're working on a purchase order. Each of these tasks is accessible by its own tab. The concept is very similar to the tabs feature within an Internet browser.

 

In the figure, there are three sets of tabs. The first is at the very top of the window, and contains Home, General, and Service Package. The next set of tabs can bee see below the ribbon in red highlighting.
