Main UI elements

The interface of Unidata system is divided into two parts:

• Navigation panel. Horizontal bar at the top of the screen (Figure 1). This panel allows you to switch between system sections, view notifications, system information, etc. The types of navigation buttons to switch between sections depend on the user’s role.

• Workspace. The area where the user can access the selected section functions. Located under the navigation bar.

Navigation Panel

Left side of the navigation panel has a menu where you can pin sections to the navigation bar, access the needed section, or enable draft mode in the data administrator interface.

Workspace

The functions available in the workspace depend on the active section:

• In the “Data” section, the workspace is a search bar and a table with the found entity/lookup entity records.

• In the “Users” section, the workspace is divided into 2 parts: the account list on the left, and the account settings.

When switching between sections of the navigation panel, the state of the workspace elements is saved: the position of the panels, search results, entered data, and so on. Data that is not saved is deleted. The elements’ appearance is saved when you log out or change your password.
