Toolbar
At the top of your Workamajig interface is the Toolbar. This part of the UI is designed to access other areas of the system, see notifications. Along with viewing reports and creating record.
Navigation
From the Workamajig Navigation in the upper left corner of the interface, you are able to access other areas of the application. These areas are designed to be role based. Depending on security rights and other factors, what Menu Items you see will vary.

Notifications
The notification bell at the top of the toolbar is there to alert you when an actionable item has been sent to you for review and/or approval.
Click on the bell icon in your toolbar to open the Notifications panel.
From here you will see a list of items needing your attention.
You can then click on the line of one of these items for a list of more detail.
In this case, we can see there are a number of Deliverables that this user has yet to make a decision on.
Depending on the type of transaction, some will give you the option to Approve/Reject right from the notification list. Others, like Deliverables, will take you to a page in which further review needs to be done.
For example, here is what you may see if you have a Client Invoice to Approve/Reject.
Search
You can open the Search panel by clicking on the spyglass icon in the upper right of your screen. From there you can perform a Global Search, view a list of recent records you have looked at, or open the report Views to which you have access.
Global Search
The Global Search is only available for Employees. Client Logins do not have access to this search function.
With the search panel open, type in a Keyword, Name or Record ID> click SEARCH to see results
Recent
This will show you the last several records you have opened in the system.
Views
These are the top level reports of data in your system. These show one line per record, from Invoices to Projects and everything in between. Clicking on a report row will open the record. This is all based on security access.
If you are looking for more detailed reports, head over to our Report Center and check out the custom reports.
System Settings
This allows you to set up the sections of Workamajig that will be searched by security group. By default, only active projects and companies will populate in the search.
To access, click on the System Settings icon, and you will then be able to select the security group and the Application Sections to be searched.
After you have selected the appropriate sections, click the SAVE button.
By default, this will apply to all users, i.e. Company Defaults. You can set rights so each security group can search for specific records only.
NOTE: Depending on the sections you enable and the amount of data accumulated in your system, search times may take longer.
New Record
By clicking on the Plus Sign from the toolbar, you can quickly create a new record based on what your security group rights allow.
For example, the following screenshot shows just some of the records that can be added quickly from this menu item.

If you run your browser full screen and the screen is set to 1024 x 768. This should be the size of the image being uploaded. Otherwise, the system will stretch or compress the image.
