The user can change the look of the summary page by adding or removing fields from the filter or summary list, changing the order of the results, etc. This is done by clicking on the Preferences link on the top left of the screen.

Creating the Summary Pages

To create a new summary page, you need to create a single XML file under ../pages/summary/<module_name> directory. 

An SQL or an EJB method at the beginning of the file determines the information that will be retrieved and displayed on the summary page. 

In the following example, warehouses.xml is created under ../pages/summary/inventory and uses an SQL statement to retrieve the information.
