How to Use This Guide

Use this page to understand how admin documentation is organised and what Add / Edit / View mean in both the app and these guides.


Documentation layout

What it does

The docs sidebar mirrors the admin app: Getting Started first, then Your account, Using the admin, then topic modules (Reports, Master Data, Settings, etc.).

Each topic usually has

  1. Overview — what the menu section is for and suggested setup order.
  2. Full guides — one page per important screen.

Step-by-step — find help for a task

  1. Open the topic overview (e.g. Expense Management).
  2. Pick the screen name and open its Full guide link.
  3. Or use Find a Screen for a quick lookup table.
  4. In the app, use header Search to jump to a page you are allowed to open.

Permissions

If Add, Edit, Import, or a switch is missing or greyed out, your role does not allow that action. Ask a store or system administrator to update your role — resetting your password does not add menu access.
