Dynamics 365 Business Central includes a FactBox control element on many key list pages. The purpose of this FactBox is to display informations related to records in the lists, providing extra insight into the data. The idea is that as you move between rows in the list, the record updates for the selected entry.
Factbox area is normally located on the Left side of the page and is used to display content including other pages, charts, and system parts such as Notes, and Links.
Creating a factbox can be done in two steps.
