From a back-office perspective it can be beneficial to see records on a tile, instead of in a grid or a form type of display. This ensures that a combination of data can be more accessible, without first having to click on specific details. Currently we only have the option to show a table, task, report or detail tab as a tile, but in this case, it would be preferable to also have the option to show records in a table or view as tiles in the GUI.
For example: a production company can currently view their employee planning either from the perspective of a specific employee, or a specific project. They would like to have one screen, with a tile for every employee, that immediately shows the project they’re planned on and any possible existing comments/notes. This will provide them with a clear overview of the current status/situation of who is present and scheduled to do which project.
This idea can however be applied to a variety of different situations.
