Get Started: New Xplan Navigation & Community

[IRESSCommunityManager]

Hello, and welcome to the Iress Community, your home for Xplan software information. 

The improvements we’ve made to Xplan’s navigation are a direct response to feedback from Xplan users and follow twelve months of user input and testing, as part of Iress Labs. 

The main improvements include:

• menu options based on how you work, so you can navigate around Xplan more intuitively
• an improved search function so you can find clients, accounts, documents and everything else within Xplan more easily
• a bookmark function so you can get to frequently accessed modules faster
• direct access to the Iress Community -  a single source of Xplan information including searchable help, release notes, training videos, real-time updates, and access to Xplan experts, and tips and tricks from other Xplan users.

In the Xplan release available from Friday 6 December 2019 (version 19.12), the new navigation view will become standard for all users with the classic navigation option removed.

 

If you’re new to the new Xplan navigation, we recommend taking a few minutes to check out these helpful resources ahead of your upgrade.
