Dashboard tab

How can I post or change a message

on the "edit message" link under the current message in the Message
Board section.
2. Enter a new message, or edit or delete any current message(s) in the
"Message Board" text field.
3. Click on the "Save" button.

What is the "Bulk User Change Wizard," and how do I use it?

The "Bulk User Change Wizard," found under the "Wizards" header in
the Dashboard, enables empowered users to add information or make changes
to groups of user records or to all user records within one or more departments, rather
than having to deal with each individual user record separately.

To use the Bulk User Change Wizard:

1. Go to the My Account module, and click on the Dashboard tab.

2. Click on the "Bulk user change wizard" link found under the "Wizards"
section heading.

Step 1 dialog

3. In the "Step 1" dialog, select a user from the "User to copy from" drop-down.
The settings in this user's Account > Users > User ID > Demographic dialog
will be applied to selected users or departments in Step 2.

4. Select the information you want to copy using the "Available items" picker
list and copy them into the "Selected information" field using the "Add" arrows
just below the list fields.

5. Choose to copy the information to other users or to
departments by selecting the appropriate "Copy to" radio button. Then click on "Next."

Step 2 dialog

6. In the "Step 2" dialog, select from the "Available" picker list the departments or
users to whose dialogs you want to copy the information you selected in
Step 1, and then click on "Run." If successful, you will see the message, "The
update is complete," along with a message about the number of users affected
by the change.

Note: You cannot undo a wizard. If you have made a mistake, you need to make
the appropriate corrective selections in both Steps 1 and 2, and run the wizard again.

My Options tab

How can I change my password?

To change your password and password hint:
1. Click on the "My Options" tab in the My Account module, and then click on the Password sub-tab. Enter your new password in the "Password" field, then enter it again in the "Confirm password" field.
2. Enter or change your password hint in the "Password hint" field. (This hint is what OpenAir support personnel will send you if you forget your password, so be sure that your hint will clearly remind you of your password.)
3. Click on the "Save" button.

Note: If you made a typo, you will be prompted to re-enter the password confirmation; otherwise, you will see the message, "The password was successfully changed."

Note: For security reasons, administrators can change other people’s user IDs and passwords. If you have trouble signing in, check with your administrator/manager to be sure that your password was not changed.

How can I get my company logo to appear on the invoices I send my clients?

Go to My Account > Company > Logos, and either use the "Browse" button or
type in the pathway to upload a copy of your logo to OpenAir. Your logo
will be automatically added to your invoices as well as to individual timesheet
reports, expense reports, and proposals. (Please note:
If you do not provide a PDF version of your logo, OpenAir.com will use the
web version; however, a PDF version *cannot* substitute for a web-compatible
version.)
