Juhend HansaWorld Enterprise'i versioonile 6.4  

The Master Control Panel

The Enterprise by HansaWorld work area contains a single movable tool palette: the Master Control panel, located by default in the centre of the screen.

You can open the Master Control panel or bring it to the front at any time using the 'Master Control' item on the File menu. Windows and Linux users can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl-M, while Mac OS X users can use ⌘-M. To close the Master Control panel, click the close box or use the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl-F4/⌘-W.

The Master Control panel is divided into three main parts:
  • The area on the right of the Master Control panel is known as the "Personal Desktop". If you have certain records, registers, reports or Maintenance functions that you use all the time, you can move them to your Personal Desktop for easy access. You can open a record or register or run a report or Maintenance function from your Master Control panel at any time, without first having to change modules, find records in browse windows or find reports, documents or Maintenance functions in list windows. The Personal Desktop therefore gives you access to the most important parts of Enterprise by HansaWorld in a similar manner to a list of Bookmarks in a browser. Please refer to the description of the Personal Desktop here for full details.

    The lower part of the Personal Desktop is occupied by Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). KPIs are described here.

  • The strip along the top of the Master Control panel contains the following tools:

    The Operations drop-down menu contains a number of functions connected to the Personal Desktop. It also contains a function that you can use to change your password.

    Click this button if you want to log in as a different user.

    This button opens the Business Communicator window. This allows you to communicate with any Contact (both external and internal) using any method (e.g. telephone, mobile, Skype, SIP, email, text SMS and the chat feature built in to Enterprise by HansaWorld).

    Click this button to connect to the web and go to the HansaWorld website where you can find the Enterprise by HansaWorld manuals in a web format (www.hansamanuals.com).

    This button does not appear in the Master Control panel in the Mac OS X version of the Enterprise by HansaWorld application. If you are using this version, choose 'Online Manual' from the Help menu to go to www.hansamanuals.com.

    If you are using Windows or Linux, you can also go to www.hansamanuals.com by choosing 'Help' from the Info menu.

    Click this button to connect to the web and go to the HansaWorld website where you can find tutorials illustrating how to use various functions in Enterprise by HansaWorld.

    Click this button to connect to the web and go to the HansaWorld website (www.hansaworld.com). To find and download the latest version of Enterprise by HansaWorld, click this button and then, in your browser, click the "Products" link and then "Downloads" to go to the 'Downloads' page.

  • The left-hand part of the Master Control panel contains a number of buttons, divided into four sections, as follows:
