You may navigate through the Web-based ViewPoint reports by selecting and expanding the menu options on the left side of browser window and then selecting the desired ViewPoint report. The ViewPoint Web Interface should be intuitive and easy-to-navigate for anyone familiar with the tree-structure menu design.

The ViewPoint Web Interface also includes links at the top right corner of the browser window. These options are: Date, Help, and Logout.

•The Date option opens a new window. This window al- lows you to change the report date from a Web-based calendar.

•The Help option displays comprehensive instructions for installing, configuring and troubleshooting ViewPoint.

•The Logout option on the upper right side of the browser window terminates the management session and redisplays the Authentication window. If the Logout op- tion is clicked, it will be necessary to reauthenticate to use ViewPoint.

Note: The ViewPoint administrator will be automatically logged out of the ViewPoint User Interface after 5 minutes of inactivity.

The current report date is displayed at the top right of the ViewPoint window.
