Hi All,


It would be great if the angle brackets (<>) of breadcrumb in D365O would be clickable the same way as in Windows Explorer.


For example, the user navigates to this path: Sales and marketing>Setup>Opportunities>Probability


If the user clicks the bracket before Probability the menu elements under Opportunities would be shown (list of Probability, Prognosis, Reason, Sales process).


That would speed up the navigation in D365O as far as I am concerned.


Thanks,


Zoltan

In Platform update 24, the navigation bar was restyled to align with the Office header. Notably, this design does not maintain a breadcrumb in the header at all. Other updates to the Navigation pane made recently (e.g. remembering the expand/collapse state of nodes in the Navigation pane and the ability to expand/collapse all nodes) were targeted at improving main menu navigation. We are interested in hearing more about any main menu navigation scenarios that continue to be difficult to explore potential solutions.

Removing the breadcrumb was a lousy idea. If I start something and get called away from that screen, I lose track of where I'm at. Too many of theses screens look the same. I depended on that breadcrumb to remind me of where I'm at.

Per Microsoft, the option to enable legacy navigation bar within the Client performance options page is being deprecated in April 2020. :( It doesn't make sense to me that with this many votes, Microsoft is still prioritizing their wish for alignment with other office products over this proven as VERY useful and practical feature for their users. Isn't this system built for us? We have spoken and our voice should count.

You will find the parameter under
System administration > Setup > Client performance options > Enable legacy navigation bar

As far as I understood, this is a temp option till version 28 !
My recommendation is to keep it - This is a need to be able to support the end user.

Breadcrumb is back :-)

You will find the parameter under

System administration > Setup > Client performance options > Enable legacy navigation bar

Hopefully we will not lose this parameter with a next PU.

Users are lost and the phone support team can't sort out where the user is located within D365FO. Please fix the following and our team might consider losing the breadcrumb over time:

1) Search must actually work. Finding anything that begins with "All" is nearly impossible. "All" is a very important location for many of the D365FO lists.

2) Search must actually search within (contains) not just the first word. Try searching All and you'll find a partially alpha list that then becomes random.

3) It appears that forms that begin with ALL are the only forms that are labeled by name. Every form must have a label that is much easier to spot.

4) Form change feature should not just be for personalization but also enabling a global administrator to push a custom form a global basis. Global form changes must be versioned (v1.1). Global form changes must be security driven by an attribute (user groups, departments, etc.) to support different business unit requirement.

5) Pop-up contextual help must not interfere with field selection.

6) The business process ribbon should drive the user to next steps more clearly. Chevron graphic might do the trick.

7) Rename the Waffle (aka Hamburger) to "Transporter" to convey is true purpose of reducing navigation keystrokes. Then train your userbase on the difference in 60 seconds or less. Tell us how to leap to a new navigation model instead of assuming it's obvious to over several decades of diving deep into a menu and using the back key or Escape to pop back up to the surface. Someone please pass me Scuba spare air.

Please un-reject this suggestion. Having clickable breadcrumbs would be great - but having breadcrumbs is a must! Please revert the change to remove them.

Would really like the breadcrumb back for our end-users. They rely on it quite a bit.

Cannot believe this idea was rejected. Current menu navigation is very poor.

The breadcrumb (also the only viewable) was very important for support. You could described an user a clearly way to a form. One hardcopy says more than 1000 words.

This is missing now. You have to use a lot of words and misunderstanding is the result.

Search-function is not an alternative because of too much results.

The breadcrumb has to come back shortly, please.

The function of a clickable breadcrumb can be realized in a second wave.
