Common Navigation Elements

Overview

When navigating Getac Enterprise, common elements remain the same with only minor differences depending on the selected section, e.g. Assets vs Cases menu. This article explains how to filter or change the information displayed regardless of section.

Navigation Menu

The main navigation menu is always located on the left side of the screen, regardless of which section is currently being viewed. 

See the image below for an example:

The navigation menu elements include:

• Assets - Displays the Asset Search Page

• Cases - Displays the Manage Cases page.

• Sharing - Manage Sharing page.

• Units - Display the Units page.

  

• Setup -  Provides a list of submenus that allow for configuration of administrator settings in Getac Enterprise.

  

   

  
  

Tables

While different data points may be present, data tables function the same across all pages. 

Common elements include:

• Actions Column - Contains a vertical ellipsis (⋮) button that provides a submenu with different options, dependent upon the page currently being viewed. This button appears on every page's table.

  

• Sort Buttons - Columns, with ↑↓ arrows, can be sorted by ascending or descending order.

  

• Column Search Bar - Columns with a search bar can be filtered by keyword searching, including wildcard searches.

  

• Picklist - Columns with a dropdown list can be filtered by selecting from an existing data list, e.g., Categories.

• Date/Time Group - Columns with a calendar icon can be sorted by the Date/Time Group. This includes pre-selected filters in a picklist as well as custom range options.

  

Note:

The navigation menu can be closed at any time by clicking on the ≡ icon in the top left of the menu. See image below for its location:

Additional Options

The following buttons are located on the right-side of the screen, above the table (inside of red rectangle).

• Search for Assets button - Brings up the search dialogue, allowing for a new search without having to return to the previous screen.

  

• Expand View button - This allows for minimizing the Navigation menu, allowing for more space on the screen for viewing the table.
  

  

• Clear All Filters button - This quickly resets all filters back to default.

  

• Customize Columns button - This allows for adjustment of which columns are viewed. Preset views can also be created from this menu.

  Additional navigation elements that are unique to specific pages are covered in each respective section.
