6.0 Interface

GroupWise Mailbox Management splits the view of the system into two parts. The left side of the screen holds objects, users, resources, and lists while the right side has the information tied to any object selected.

The left side of the window, the tree view, is only used for selecting objects to modify. Objects cannot be moved, and cannot be modified on this side of the screen.

The right side of the window holds all of the information on the object selected and allows modification.

You must first select an object, (even if previously highlighted), before you can access, edit, view the object, rule, setting, or information.

The right side of the screen allows access to configuration through selectable tabs across the top of the right side and sub-tabs. When large amounts of information is displayed, it is formed into a ’grid’ view, which allows customization according to columns, as well as custom filters. To access or act on the information shown in a grid, you must first select it with the mouse, once selected, you can edit, view, or organize the information.

Using the mouse right-click is a quick and effective way of accessing different options for configuration and organizing the information, (especially in grids), by adding or removing filtering criteria or organizing by columns. To access these options, you need to right click in the grid area. The right-click also allows the administrative user to quickly generate reports and export data to XLS, PDF, XPS, or plain text formats.
