PPO Breadcrumbs Required

When you are navigating PPO, one should see a breadcrumb at the top of the page, like most of the internet pages, which show the user the trail of pages that he has navigated through to get to where she is. This should also help the user that when she clicks on any part of the breadcrumb the system should then take her to that specific page, which would be a previous page that she has opened to get to her current page.

For Example:
Breadcrumb: Home > Projects > Project Name > Document Name

From a specific project document one should be able to click on Project Name and go back to the project.

  Hi Sizwe. The problem in PPO is that there are many ways to navigate around and it is difficult to know when to reset the bread-crumb. You can for example go from the home page to a project to an issue to a document to an employee to another document. A bread-crumb like this would get unwieldy.

  In the example that you mention, when you are on a document, you just click on the View Project button to go to the related project.

  We will however consider adding hyper-linking on the project field as an alternative mechanism.

  I wanted to list this same request and saw this post. This functionality would be super useful as the navigation back does get to me.

  I see this is a post from 2013, so maybe you have already addressed this in a way I'm not familiar with.
