Design Principle
Admin work often moves from filtered lists into detail handling, and both views must share state and action semantics.
Principle Admin work often moves from filtered lists into detail handling, and both views must share state and action semantics.
Design action Lists handle filtering, sorting, bulk action, and status overview; details handle identity, history, key fields, related objects, and contextual actions.
Examples Positive example: CRM, orders, users, moderation, tickets, and knowledge item management. Counterexample: The detail page has no path back to filtered results.
Apply when CRM, orders, users, moderation, tickets, and knowledge item management. Users need to judge state, scope, risk, or next action quickly.
