You use the navigation functions of the Engineering Workbench to reach BOM objects and routing objects quickly.

You control the Engineering Workbench using the cockpit. You use it to determine which of the objects in your worklist are displayed. For instance, if you only want to see the sub-items of BOMs with a particular BOM category, you use the cockpit.

You can display the object in your worklist in the overviews and detail screens of the Engineering Workbench. You use an overview screen to display several objects with the same object type. If you want information about an individual object, you call up its detail screen.

There is an overview screen and detail screen for every object type in the Engineering Workbench (although operations and sub-operations have a common overview screen).

You can go from one overview screen to another, as you like. You can call up a detail screen for every object on an overview screen (see graphic).
