Thanks a lot. Do you know if this approach saves the current screen of each user individually? I mean, will I be able to see where each user is at the moment in the application?

It uses a computed column, so no, not by default. But you could use an action to write the value into a non-computed column as the user navigates around.

Yeah, but then the user will need to click on that action to write the value in the non-computed column, right?

Correct. So you’d need to modify existing navigation actions.

I thought about it, but the problem with this approach is that if someone opens the screen through a link and not through the navigation, you can’t save the current screen URL.

Yes, you’re right. It’s not a perfect solution, but it’s the only one that I’m aware of.
