Menus, Consoles, Customization, and Access Roles

OnCore is organized in to menus. Each menu contains a grouping of consoles or pages that pertain to that subject matter (Protocols, Subjects, etc.). Consoles and pages within OnCore are designed to work together and communicate from one to the other.

A console is a set of related pages for a particular workflow, function, and type of data. To customize your Favorites Bar on your home page, navigate to the Menu and star any menus, consoles, or pages you wish to appear on your home screen. Favorited items can then be arranged on the Favorite's bar using drag and drop.

Access roles determine the protocols, subjects, and data each user can view and/or edit. Access roles also determine which menus and consoles the user can access and which tasks they can complete. Some users may have multiple access roles assigned, depending on their job roles. Access roles are stacked, meaning the user's access is a combination of all privileges for all assigned access roles; you do not need to switch between access roles in order to complete different tasks.
