Interface

This section explains the very basics, logging in, home view, and general overview of other views.

Login

Log-in view

The first screen that appears is your log-in screen. Please log in with your credentials.

You can reset your password in the case you forgot it, by clicking on the link at the bottom. Instructions will be emailed to you.

Home view

Home view for a typical staff user

The home view will show up after a successful login. It changes, based on user permissions. The above example is what a typical staff user sees.

In the header, it says That Green Thing, the link leads to the home page for this software. Next to it is your company name.

The right side shows links to this user manual, for changing the password and logging out.

This header is present in all views.

We have two columns, the left one has links to other views, grouped in sections.

The right column shows up to 10 of your latest actions, with links to appropriate views.

Types of Views

Most common views are:

• List - list of objects, includes search, filtering and batch actions

• Add - view for adding new objects, in most cases same as change

• Change - view for changing an object, includes delete button

• View - similar to change view, but not editable, may include delete button

• History - object history, accessible from change view

The views are explained in detail in Publishers.
