Welcome Screen

When you log in to Med-Stop, the first screen you see is the Welcome screen. It is a highly customizable page presenting the most important statistics and information about your company.

Statistics

Information about your company status and important alerts is presented on this page. The statistics are grouped to give you a clear view of your company’s status. Each group has its own title, last updated timestamp, customization menu, and, of course, the information itself.

The statistics are refreshed at specified intervals to speed up the Welcome screen loading. They are refreshed automatically when the information covered by a specific category changes. You can also refresh them manually by selecting the Refresh option from the statistics options menu.

You can organize this information by closing the statistic boxes that are not important to you and/or arranging the content into columns. You can set up as many as 10 columns.

To perform actions on a selected statistics group, locate the statistics options menu—the downward arrow button in the top-right part of the box. Clicking this button will give you the following options:

Collapse / Expand

Allows you to hide or show the selected statistical information

Refresh

Updates the selected statistic with current information from the Med-Stop system

Close

Allows you to close the statistics you do not need

Move Up / Move Down

Changes the vertical position of the statistics box within the column

Column Left / Column Right

Changes the column in which the statistics box is positioned

When you close a statistics box, you can reopen it by selecting it from the Show Statistic list on the left side of the Welcome screen. There is also a Reset button that allows you to reset the screen layout to its default state.

Quick Search

In the top-left corner of the Welcome screen, you will find the Quick Search box. This is the fastest way to find information in the system. Select the record type you are looking for, type in your search text, and press the Find button. If any records meet your search criteria, they will be displayed at the top of the Welcome screen. You can click on an item in the search result list to go directly to the information window you selected.

Press the Reset button to clear the Quick Search list.

Quick Tasks

Quick Tasks is the fastest way to perform your everyday duties. If you see statistics on the Welcome screen, locate the Quick Tasks button in the top-right part of the screen and click it. This will bring you to the Quick Tasks screen—a list of the most common tasks, accessible with one click. Most of them will open a window that guides you through the selected task.

My Status

In the middle-left part of the Welcome screen, you will see the My Status box. This shows basic information about your login session—your name, location/employer, the previous login date, and the last login error date.

If your last login date is incorrect and/or you see a login error date even though you haven’t made any login errors recently, change your password immediately.

This could mean that someone else is trying to log in to the Med-Stop system using your username and password.
