Tips and best practices

Tips and Best Practices #

  • Log Out When Done: Use Home > Exit to close ConMan securely.
  • Keep Credentials Safe: Don’t share your username or password.
  • Check the Status Bar: Verify you’re logged in as the correct user.
  • Use Tiles for Quick Access: Tiles are faster than the toolbar for frequent tasks.
  • Export Regularly: Save grid data to Excel for backups or reporting.

Troubleshooting #

  • Can’t Log In: Double-check your username and password. Ensure caps lock is off. Contact your administrator if locked out.
  • Tiles Don’t Respond: Ensure you’re fully logged in (check the status bar). Restart ConMan if needed.
  • Export Fails: Verify you have permission to save files in the chosen location.
  • Window Looks Off: ConMan opens maximized by default; avoid resizing unless necessary.
