Chapter 2. Installation and configuration HandiRegister 2015
Colour options
Each HandiRegister 2015 user is able to customise the appearance of windows within the program. Use this feature to make the HandiRegister 2015 information easy to read. You are able to make the following alterations:
Nominate two colours to use when displaying information. For example, you can display each even line of information on a grey background and each odd line on a white background. This will make it easier to read information across the screen.
Nominate if each row/column is to have a gridline separating it from the next row/column.
Define the colour or gridlines.
For more information on colour option settings, please refer to the "Advanced Features 2015" manual.
Security
With HandiSoft products, you are able to secure access to your HandiSoft programs and data in two ways:
1. The Practice Manager – Security program provides you with advanced security options.
Each user has a unique password. An administrator can specify (a) the programs that each user can access, (b) the menu commands that each user can access, and (c) the clients that each user cannot access.
2. For detailed instructions, see the Practice Manager 2015 User Manual.
3. Every HandiSoft program includes a basic security system. This system allows you to define two passwords – the operator password and the supervisor password. This allows you to:
Restrict the people who can access all HandiSoft programs.
To start a HandiSoft program, you must type either the Operator or the Supervisor password.
Restrict the menu options available.
In addition to restricting access to each HandiSoft Software program, passwords automatically restrict access to set menu options within each program. If you start
HandiRegister 2015 using the Supervisor password, you can access all menu options.
If you start HandiRegister 2015 using the Operator password, you cannot access the following menu items:
View Lodgment Program Statement
EDGE Setup
Passwords
Super check box in the Client database.
HandiRegister program information
The "About HandiRegister 2015 "window displays license and version information about the
HandiRegister 2015 program you have installed. For example, you can use it to check whether you are running the latest version of HandiRegister 2015.
