To the left of the user menu, you can see three vertical dots. These dots represent the menu icon. This menu is specifically for customizing your top panel.

By clicking on any of the tabs in the top bar, It’ll change the panel on the left of the map.

 

This panel is called the work area and it represents the tab that we’ve selected. Some tabs allow you to create new items. If you have the available permission, you’ll see a new button at the top of the work area.

 

 

You can use the search bar to look for the name of an item. Located in the top right corner of the work area. The search bar only searches for the tabs you selected.

                                  

The work area can also be adjusted to expose more or less of the map at any given time. You can slide the window all the way to the left to make your whole window just the map.

 

To the bottom right of the show work area icon is the “Show/Hide Mini maps” Icon. Just click on it when you need to hide or pull them back up.

 

To the right of the what's new icon, you’ll see a section containing 3 different buttons, all of which pull up their own window.

The first of these 3 is the online notifications. Allowing you to see all notifications from that session.

Next is the "Chat with drivers" icon. Which allows you to chat/ send messages to your drivers.

 

To the right of the section is the show logs icon. It will allow you to see the logs or recordings of what’s happening on the server from the perspective of your account.

Now let’s go to the user settings, which are a foundation of user access.

In the general settings of the user settings, you can select your primary language, time zone, daylight saving time, date format, time format, the first day of the week, Measurement system, and City.
