The Start Page

After logging-in via the groupware interface, you will immediately be informed about your new appointments or tasks. If you have been invited to an appointment, you will see a pop-up window. In this pop-up window you can see a short description of the appointment, and either confirm it or decline.

The Start page provides you with an overview of some important data. The Start page serves as an overview of the appointments and tasks of the current day. By default, the first five entries are displayed. The number of the displayed elements can be changed in the options for the Start page.
