View source for The Dashboard (Home Page)

== Introduction ==
The Dashboard, or the home page, is the first page that you see when you enter the system.

In a normal day, the Dashboard would look like this:

[[File:Dashboard en.png|1200px]]

On the top area, there is always the black toolbar with three things:

{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%"
|style="width:50px;text-align:center"|1
|Display of '''the current logged-in user''', in the form "username@domain". For example, if you are the user "reception" of domain "theboutique", it would display "reception@theboutique". By clicking on this menu, you can see the options of [[Changing Your Password|changing your password]] and logging out from the system.
|-
|style="width:50px;text-align:center"|2
|"Options" is the '''quick access to all functionality''' of the system. For an administrator, that would be all possible options. But for another user created from the [[Users]] page, that could be less items, depending on the permissions that the user has.<br/>Note that this menu has more choices that the big buttons displayed in the picture with numbers 6-11.
|-
|style="width:50px;text-align:center"|3
|Quick access to the '''help pages'''.
|}

Below the black bar starts the main content of the Dashboard:

{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%"
|style="width:50px;text-align:center"|4
|Various '''important notifications''' about channel manager, overbookings, time zone issues etc. 
|-
|style="width:50px;text-align:center"|5
|'''Current local date and time''', updated every minute. The heart icon next to the date/time indicates the connection with the system.<br/>Note: It is important that the date and time coincide with the ones that you have in your device. If not, go to [[Regional Settings]] to adjust the time zone of your device.
|}
Below of the date is a black container with buttons that link to frequently used sections of the system:
