Platform Orientation

Project Dashboard Page

The first page when you log into the platform will show an interactive map of global project locations. The searchable list and dashboards to the right will automatically re-align with the regions visible in the map. Please note that projects shown on this page are filtered to show ‘Finalized Statuses’ only.

Main Project Dock

As compared to the Project Dashboard, this page will show all active projects in your Saltmine instance.

In the Core Platform, the ‘9 Square Grid’ or ‘Chocolate Bar’ is a central location on the platform where additional modules and pages can be accessed. Please note grid may vary based on your individual permissions or your company’s subscription.
