Getting Started dialog

Top  Previous  Next

The Getting Started dialog displays a list of basic steps for getting started with ManagePLUS. Each item in the list is a link to a topic in the ManagePLUS Help system, which gives you quick access to more details about any of the steps. Also, this dialog is a "stay on top" window, so it always shows above all other ManagePLUS windows when it is open.
 

Basics

Accessing it

The Getting Started dialog is automatically displayed when you first open ManagePLUS or begin working with a new company file.
To stop ManagePLUS from automatically displaying the Getting Started dialog, check mark  the "Don't show this message again" box in the lower left corner of the dialog.
 
To re-enable automatic display of the Getting Started dialog, open the Preferences dialog (Edit > Preferences), select the Message Display pane in Personal preferences, and check mark the item "Display Getting Started dialog after opening a new company".
Also, you may open the Getting Started dialog manually by choosing Help > Show Getting Started dialog... from the main menu.

Using it

Use the list as a reminder of what to do next.
If you want more information about any step, click on the step's blue-highlighted text to open a ManagePLUS Help system topic related to that step.
Use the window's scrollbar to scroll the list and see all of the steps. You may move and/or resize the window as desired.
