This section describes the main page types users of ICA-AtoM will encounter. Page titles throughout the system indicate the type of page being displayed. The main page types are:


Home page

Home page: user is logged in

The home page is the first page the user sees when opening the application. It provides basic information about the application and links and buttons for user actions (search, browse, log in, log out, get help, switch language). When the user logs in, the main menu becomes visible.

The home page is accessible from any other page by clicking the site title, the site logo or the "home" link in the user menu.
