Multitasking Browser in Business Central

Business Central October 2019 Wave 2 Update comes with several new features that make your life easier. One of them is multi-tasking across multiple pages.

If you like to open several pages to perform multiple tasks at the same time, Business Central allows you to do that.

You can either open the page in new browser tab or use the icon to open the page in a new window.

New Browser Tab

You can open a new browser and paste Business Central link as it is. When you do this, each browser tab will act as a separate session. If you do update on one tab, you will need to refresh the other tab to see the update.

Open page in a new window

Look for new window icon on the top right corner of your page.

This functionality allows users to pop out a card or document into a new connected window.

You can pop up several records and do comparison between records easily with this method.

With this method, the new browser tab works as a connected session to the main page. Any update on the connected-page will get reflected on the main page immediately.
