You will notice two sets of icons that look very similar, labelled 1 and 2 above. These are identical and will both take you to the same areas. Please note that your screen may look different than what is shown above based on your assigned Security Role within the system.
Option #1, the large tiles, will each take you to a different functional area within the system. Simply click on the tile that you want to go to and you will be taken to the appropriate Area.
Option #2, the smaller tiles, work the same as #1, with 2 important differences.
- These navigation tiles are on nearly every page of the system. They will always be located at the top left of the screen and you may use them to quickly navigate without going back to the main menu.
- These smaller tiles also provide additional options as seen here:
Simply hover your mouse over the tile and a menu will drop down giving you further options. You may then click on any of these options to be taken directly to that function. Example: If you are in the middle of looking at your Space Inventory, and the receive a call that a Work Order needs to be entered, you may simply hover your mouse over the Work icon, and then clicking Create to enter a Work Order without navigating back to the main menu.
