Better navigation in report builders: contextual breadcrumbs are here
Better navigation in report builders: contextual breadcrumbs are here
Release: v0.1.376
Overview
If you've ever opened a Check-Out report, a Check-In report, or a Deduction Claim from the work queue or a direct link, you may have noticed there was no easy way to tell which tenancy you were working in — or to get back to the right place without hitting the browser back button and hoping for the best.
As of v0.1.376, all three report-builder pages now show a consistent contextual breadcrumb at the top of the page.
What's changed
Check-Out report builder
The old plain All Reports link has been replaced with a structured breadcrumb:
Check-Out Reports > 42 Example Street, London
The property address is drawn from the existing report data already loaded on the page — no extra network request required.
Check-In report builder
The same breadcrumb pattern has been applied, keeping the Check-In and Check-Out experiences consistent:
Check-In Reports > 42 Example Street, London
Deduction Claim builder
Previously, the only way back was a generic router.back() button — which took you wherever you came from, with no indication of tenancy context. This has been replaced with a PageBreadcrumb tied to the tenancy, giving you a stable, predictable link back to the correct tenancy detail page regardless of how you arrived.
Why this matters
These pages are reachable from several different places:
- The work queue
- A tenancy detail page
- A direct / shared link
Without breadcrumbs, it was easy to lose your place — particularly when working across multiple tenancies in separate tabs, or when arriving via a notification link. The breadcrumb pattern was already established on the tenancy detail view; this release brings the report-builder pages in line with that standard.
Component used
All three pages now use the shared PageBreadcrumb component, the same one used throughout the rest of the dashboard. This ensures visual consistency and means any future changes to breadcrumb styling or behaviour will apply everywhere automatically.
No action required
This is a UI improvement — no configuration, settings changes, or data migration are needed. The breadcrumbs will appear automatically the next time you open a report builder page.
