General navigation

TMS is highly customisable and the information and features available to you may be different from those shown here. The following includes the different ways to navigate around TMS:


  • Header pane — a drop-down panel which opens when you click TMS in the header of a page. The Header pane displays links to the TMS features available to you.

  • Dashboard — the page you see when you log in to TMS. The Dashboard is customisable and displays links and provides access to the TMS features available to you and to other useful information.

  • Menu widget — a Dashboard Widget displaying menus of links to the TMS features available to you.

  • Shortcuts widget — a Dashboard Widget displaying shortcuts to the TMS features available to you.

  • Left-hand navigation pane — a navigation pane opened by clicking the menu icon at the top-left of a page in TMS. It typically contains the Close action, to close the page you are viewing. It may also contain additional actions and links to other TMS features relevant to the page you are viewing.

  • Right-hand details pane - a details pane opened by clicking the three dots at the top-right of a page in TMS. This pane is used to show additional information and actions for an item selected on the page you are viewing.
