c-Navigator - English

Available commands via CTRL+SHIFT+A in the individual areas

(As of 03-2025)

With the c-Navigator, you can use keyboard shortcuts to dive into a context-based search directly from the c-entron screen and jump directly to the desired tasks or menu items, making the c-entron even easier, faster, and more efficient to use.

You can also access this overview by clicking on the "blue question mark" (?) in the open window/dialog box (open with CTRL+SHIFT+A):

"Open c-Navigator via link"

The idea is that you can send your colleague or employee a link.

They click on the link, and the ticket/offer/order/etc. opens in c-entron.NET.

How do you get the link?

Unfortunately, there is no button in .NET that allows you to copy this link or anything like that.

You must therefore assemble it yourself manually (or insert it into an email template, for example).

Structure of the link

The link is always structured as follows:

c-entron://c-entron/ShowQuickSearch?s=12345

The entire beginning is always the same; only the 12345 at the end is replaced with the search text that you want to transfer to the c-Navigator.

This is very useful for document numbers or ticket numbers.

In our example, you will then see the following displayed directly:

Alternatively, you can add &execute=true at the end, which will execute the first command found.

In this example, "Open ticket 12345."

c-entron://c-entron/ShowQuickSearch?s=12345&execute=true

Since the whole thing is a URL, it cannot contain any spaces.

This must be replaced with %20 (see example below).

Further examples

Open contract billing

Since the whole thing works via quick search, you can theoretically do other things with it as well.

for example, a link that opens the contract invoice directly:

c-entron://c-entron/ShowQuickSearch?s=ContractBilling&execute=true

Record time for a ticket

Or you can also do something like this:

c-entron://c-entron/ShowQuickSearch?s=Ticket%2012345%20Time&execute=true

Please note that spaces are replaced with %20 here!

This means you only need to find this one command and can immediately create a new time for the ticket.
