The Main Menu is where you set up your basic business information and set default options for your Work Orders. This screen is a good resting place for your program for daily operation; it displays no private or sensitive customer or shop pricing information. It contains short cuts to help you move quickly to all other areas of the program, find documents and create new records. Returning here lets other employees know that you are finished your task.
