Online User Documentation Facility - Introduction
The system has a number of Help mechanisms. One of these is the Online User Manual. The User Manual is displayed to users by means of html files (or Web pages) viewed via a web browser. Access to the User Manual is gained directly from the system by selecting the Help function whilst in any system form. This displays the Field Help form. This form contains basic detail regarding the field in which the cursor is currently active. The form also contains a number of user-configurable buttons some of which are configured to provide access to the User Manual. Up to six buttons can be user-configured. The first three buttons have system-defined labels, namely 'More', 'Index' and 'TOC'. These three buttons activate the user's browser and provide three specific entry points to the User Manual as detailed below.
