We have started using the NAV 2016 web client however we found some limitations.

1. Are we able to horizontally resize columns such as Item No and Description? The longer codes/descriptions are being truncated on screen so it's tricky to work with orders etc

2. Our sales staff use surface pro devices, therefore they like to use the touch screen in tablet mode. We have used the tablet version of the web access but we then don't see the full menu available in the navigation pane. Is this a limitation?

3. Have there been any changes in the 2018 version or does it behave in the same way as our 2016 version?

Hi CILGroup,
I've tried resizing columns in NAV 2018 but its not possible. But when you hover on the field you get to see the full value of that field. Also, NAV 2018 webclient allows hiding,freezing and moving columns to make it easier. There are multiple views of the items list i.e List View, Tall Tile View and Wide Tile View which enables view few of the important fields, but cannot view all the fields. I've attached screenshots for you to check. Hope you like it :)

When hover over the field:

Tall Tiles View:

Wide Tiles View:

Personalization:

Thanks for your reply Olister.

Am I able to switch to a wide/tall tile viewer in NAV 2016? I can't find the options anywhere?
