Backoffice Workflows

These examples show how to assemble Nim UI primitives around the operator’s next decision. Keep the page quiet, keep controls close to the data they affect, and make recovery actions visible when a workflow has no rows.

Orders Exception Queue

Use this pattern when a shift lead needs to triage a filtered queue, act on selected rows, and keep current filters visible.

Users Review

Use DescriptionList for the selected record and Timeline for the recent account trail so reviewers do not jump between pages.

Inventory Replenishment

Use EmptyState inside the same table surface when filters remove every row. This keeps the recovery action next to the controls that caused the empty result.

Audit Log Investigation

Use Timeline for the event path and DescriptionList for the selected event payload. Keep export and retention actions in the toolbar, not in the event detail.

Composition Notes

• Put the main workflow noun in PageHeaderTitle: Exception queue, Account review, Replenishment plan, or Permission change trail.
• Pair DataToolbar with FilterSummary when filters persist after menus close.
• Use BulkActionBar only when selection changes the available actions.
• Use EmptyState as a recovery surface, not as a dead end.
• Use Timeline for event order and DescriptionList for selected-record detail.
