Tips and Tricks

In no particular order, here are some tips to transform you from an average user into a power user.

Web Application Basics

If you are moving from another application or environment to a web application, you may not know these tricks that can greatly boost your productivity.

Need to view or work on multiple licences at the same time?
Open the licences in new tabs. Rather than just clicking on the licence number, hold the Ctrl key while clicking to open the link in a new tab. Alternatively, right-click the link, and choose “Open Link in New Tab”.

Need to print a report of what’s on your screen right now?
Just print it! Web applications make it easy to print any page you want. The General Licence Manager application is no different, and makes every effort to ensure that no matter which page you’re on, when you print, you get a decent result.

General Licence Manager Tricks

If you’re good with Microsoft Excel (or another spreadsheet application), you can build pretty much any report you need.
Most tables used by the General Licence Manager can be exported from the Reports page. Look for the full table exports. These exports also contain the keys necessary to link the tables together.
