Hi, Readers.
Today I would like to share another mini tip about Business Central, how to open the same list in a new tab when switching companies.
Business Central is available in many different countries/regions and supports many different types of organizations. Your organization may choose to organize work in Business Central into multiple companies and environments. More details: Understanding the infrastructure of Business Central online
When working across multiple companies, comparing data can be challenging. Is there a quick way to open the same list in a new tab without losing your current context? In this case, the Company Switcher is your best friend.
Using the company switcher is probably the quickest and most versatile way to switch company. The company switcher is a pane that’s readily available from any page. The pane gives an overview of all companies in all environments that you have access to, and lets you switch directly to any one of them—either in the same browser tab or a new one. It’s especially useful when you work in many companies across different environments. Let’s see more details.
1. In upper-right corner, near the search icon, you’ll see either the standard company icon, like company icon Launcher. and company-icon-mult-env, or a custom badge for the company you’re currently working with. Select the icon to open the company switcher pane.
You can also use the Crtl+O keyboard shortcut to open the pane.
2. In the Available Companies pane, select the company that you want to switch to.
3. Select the Switch arrow, then choose one of the following options:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Switch | Opens the role center for selected company in the same browser tab that you’re working in. The company becomes the default company that opens in Business Central, until you switch again or change the company by using My Settings. |
| Open in new tab | Opens the role center for selected company in a new browser tab, keeping the original company open in the other tab. |
| Open in new tab and go to same page | This option is only active on list pages, like customers, sales orders, or items. It opens the same list, but for the selected company, in a new browser tab. |
PS: Please note that the ‘Open in new tab and go to same page’ option is only available when you are on a list page.
Choosing the ‘Open in new tab and go to same page’ option will open the same page for the selected company in a new tab, which is extremely convenient.
