The Look , The Feel of TAMS

Roles & responsibilities - the key to unlocking the power of TAMS

What you see is what you're going to get.  The image below is the first screen you will see when executing the TAMS applications.  All  of the TAMS screens have the same look and feel as most windows or web applications, containing helpful features such as pick lists, buttons, and toolbars. 
Not only does this make the system better looking, more importantly it makes navigating between screens a breeze.  Soon to be gone are the days of memorizing FRS screen names - with TAMS you simply point, click, and you're on your way.

Roles and responsibilities are the key to maximizing the benefits of TAMS because they define your job functions and security access within the system. 
A role is a pre-defined access to specific screens and functionality within each application.  The role(s) you are assigned let the system know what your job functions are and provides you access to the screens you need to get your work done.  Your responsibilities will also define which organizations and accounts you need to access.   For example, your job may require that you review purchase requisitions.  Therefore, in the Purchasing application your role would be a Requisition Reviewer and your responsibility would define which requisitions you review. 
The TAMS team will create the roles and assign them to users.  Department heads and managers will then confirm that the assigned roles match the users' job functions.  Roles and responsibilities will be covered in more detail in the upcoming Overview sessions.  By attending these sessions, you will learn more about the importance of roles so that you can ensure your access is configured correctly.
