Using the Help System

This topic explains using the help system for the Travelport GlobalWare Cashier Module.

Accessing the Help System

You can access the entire help system by clicking the Help link displayed on module pages. For example, the Login page has a Help link.

While a module page or screen is displayed and active, press F1 to display the corresponding help topic in your internet browser.

The module's help system provides several features that can help you quickly find the information you need.

The left-pane area provides the following tabs.

Contents – This tab provides a table of contents for the help system.
Index – This tab provides an index. Each index entry opens the applicable help topic.
Glossary – This tab provides a list of terms related to the module. Click a term to view its description.

The following icons provide printing, expansion, and highlighting controls.

– This icon provides full print functionality for the currently displayed help topic.
– This icon expands or collapses all drop-down areas in the help topic. For example, the “Changing Your Password” topic has a drop-down area containing a captured image of the module's "Changed Password" page.

You can expand all drop-down areas in the displayed topic by clicking this icon. You also can expand individual drop-down areas by clicking the corresponding plus () icon.
– If you arrived at a help topic by using the Search feature in the top-right area of the help system, the terms you searched against are highlighted in the displayed topic. To remove the highlights, click this icon.

The help system's Search feature is useful for finding topics that match the word or phrase you specify.

After typing a word or phrase, press Enter or click the search icon.

Search tips:

To search for a phrase, enclose the phrase in quotations. For example, entering "pending disbursement" returns only the topics that contain the phrase pending disbursement.
Words with variant endings are returned in results. For example, a search for car returns topics with cars, carry, and care.
Boolean operators are supported. Boolean operators are not case sensitive.
- AND narrows the search and retrieves only the topics that contain all of the words. When separating words with blank spaces, the AND is inferred. You also can use a plus (+) or ampersand (&).
- OR broadens the results by retrieving topics that contain any of the words it separates. You also can use a pipe (|).
- NOT finds topics that contain one term but not the other. You also can use a caret (^).
- Use parentheses and quotation marks to combine Boolean phrases and search terms. For example, ("pending disbursement") AND ("awaiting approval") returns topics that contain both phrases enclosed by parentheses.

The Search feature does not support:

Wildcard (*) searches
Natural language searches, such as entering How can I search for terms and phrases in the help system?
