When the Focalpoint system is installed, a
Focalpoint
item is created in the Start - Programs menu. The
Focalpoint item opens the Focalpoint group from which
Focalpoint can be launched.
Logging On
When Focalpoint is launched, the Focalpoint Logon
dialog box displays. This box prompts you for your user ID,
which must be no more than 8 characters in length and
may not contain any spaces or special symbols e.g., $, /,
-.

Seconds Left
The system allows you 20 seconds to start
entering your
user name. The amount of remaining time is shown. If you
do not enter anything before the time limit expires,
Focalpoint will start with the personalization settings which
apply to the I.D. in the user name field. If the field happens
to be blank, the default agency settings will load.
Note: If Focalpoint is started automatically from the Start
Up group window along with other applications, the time out
count down mechanism is deactivated. This is provided to
allow you time to complete the Logon box.
