Companies
Company List
Screen Overview
The Company List screen provides a searchable list of all company records configured in BluSKY. It displays each company’s name and primary address and offers actions to view, edit, or delete a selected company. Administrators use this screen to maintain tenant, vendor, or internal company profiles that other BluSKY features reference.
Field Definitions
| Field Label | Definition | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Name | The display/legal name of the company as stored in BluSKY. | Click a row to select the company. Selected rows are highlighted. |
| Address | The company’s primary address shown in multi-line format (street, suite, etc.). | Read-only on the list; editable within the Edit action. |
| Selected Count (header) | Indicator in the page title showing how many records are currently selected out of the total results (e.g., “1/14817 selected”). | Updates dynamically as you select/deselect rows; actions enable based on selection. |

System Behaviors and Edge Cases

- In environments with limited permissions, only the Expand button may be visible; View/Edit/Delete will be hidden.
- Selected Count in the header reflects current selection and total results returned to the page.
- Multi-line addresses increase the row height; data remains read-only in the list.
- Delete may be prevented if the company is referenced by people, credentials, access levels, or other dependencies; the system displays a blocking message.
- When additional rows are loaded via Expand, existing selections persist until the page is refreshed or navigated away from.
- If no records match current filters (if applied elsewhere), the list renders empty but Expand remains available to fetch more.
