The new interface in version 10 uses tabs to navigate to the most common areas of your account. Click the desired tab to open the page.

One of the new features of version 10 is “persistent tabs”. Persistent tabs remember the record being displayed and will display it when you return to that tab. For example, you are looking at work order number 256 in the Work Order tab and need to see the details of a part before charging it to the work order. You click the Parts tab to find the information you need. Then, when you go back to the work order tab to charge the part, work order number 256 will be loaded automatically.
