The WebPams interface is a entirely new organizational layout from the previous version of JPAMS. This layout tries to organize all program links in a area/program type/alpha for fast lookup.

Menu Bar

The top of WebPams has a menu bar that contains several features. Menu.png


Status
The first feature is the color of the menu bar. If the menu bar is red you are in training mode and the title will say training. If the background is gold you are in live mode.
Live mode is the data that actually is used to run the school. Training mode is used for training and testing purposes and does not reflect true data.
User
The user indicator will have the welcoming and the user you are logged in as.
Icons
  • WebPams-favorite.png - This is your favorites. From here you can save your 10 favorite programs and launch them.
  • WebPams-Help.png - This is a link to the help system.
  • WebPams-Logout.png - This is the logout button.

Navigator

The left side of the screen is the program navigator/menu. This is a collapsible panel that is categorized by application area. Navigate.png

Within each application area there are several broad program types:

Entry Program
List Program
Loader Program
Count Program
Interface Program
Letter Program
Trends Program


Workspace

The Workspace is a tab separated work area that allows you to manage multiple open programs without overlapping windows. You have several different programs open at any given time. You can select a Tab to switch the active program. When you are finished with a program you can click on the red "X" at the top of the tab to close the individual program.
