Article summary

This article will explain the uses of some of the icons and fields in imPowr.

Like most other software systems, imPowr has many fields and uses many icons within its pages. This article will explain the things to be aware of with
fields and icons in imPowr.

  • Required Fields - Any field with a blue bar in the left of the box is a required field.

  • Icons – when you hover your mouse over them, the system will explain what they are. We call these little text boxes "Tooltips"

  • The icon that looks like a pad of paper, on which 'XLS' is displayed, is used to export the data shown in the display, into a spreadsheet, for download or printing. Whatever you see on the display is what will be captured in that spreadsheet, if not more items.

  • The icon with an arrow pointing to the left resets your filters.

  • The icon with two arrows flowing in opposite directions Refreshes the screen and applies the filters to the display.

  • Plus and minus icons will appear only in the Edit mode They allow you to add or delete information.
  • Add information by clicking on the '+' icon. Delete information by checking the box to the left of the item you wish to delete, and clicking on the '-' icon.

  • Some pages are editable. If they are, you will see and will be able to click an Edit button on the top right of he screen.

  • On many pages, you will see Apply and Save buttons. 'Apply' saves your work and keeps you on that same page. 'Save' saves your work and then exits you out of that page.

  • Filters can be found on many pages. These allow you to filter the data you are seeing to narrow down the display of the data to only what matters most to you.

Tip: A good practice to follow is to always remember to reset your filters to "All" or leave them blank, when you are done using them or when you exit the page.

  • The system defaults to show you the Top 50 pieces of information for all lists in the system. If you do not make changes, any time you refresh your screen to display a list (either before or after filters are applied), only a maximum of 50 items will be displayed. If you want to see everything and not be limited to only viewing 50 items, click the “All” radio button and click the refresh icon (the double arrowed icon).

You can always tell how many items are being displayed, quickly, without having to count them manually, by looking to the item count on the right side of your screen, immediately above the list of items:
