How do I set up a private discussion forum?

By default, online discussions are open to all members of your Head Office workspace. However, you can set up permissions on the forum so that only the members of your choice can see and contribute to it. When you're creating the forum, click the Permissions tab. Give the few members you want to be included in the discussion Read & Add access and set the default access to No Access.

Database Overview

A database is a place to store information. That information could be sales figures, an inventory of computers you own, a list of key customers, timesheet information; the possibilities are endless. By having the database on your site, you can easily share the information with people who need access to it.

A database also allows you to control how views are printed. You can create and print reports using a number of professionally designed templates. For help on designing and producing reports email: headoffice-help@theawaypa.eu

The real power of your database is that it is located in your Head Office This allows you to easily share the information in the database with any member/colleague of your online office, or even with guest users. It also lets other members/colleagues add information to the database. Of course, you control access to all of this with database permissions.


Managing Someone Else's Calendar in your online office

If another member/colleague grants you access, you can add new events to their Calendar. For example, if you are an executive assistant, your managers might give you access to their Calendars so you can schedule appointments for them.

To add an event to another member's Calendar:

  1. Click Calendar in the Menu.

  2. In the View calendar for drop-down at the top of the page, choose the name of the member's Calendar that you'd like to see.

  3. Click New in the Command Bar.

  4. Fill in the event details, and then click Save in the Command Bar.
