Understanding the Menu in Case Manager

Understanding the Menu in Case Manager

While the My Page Toolbar in Case Manager displays information about the people you serve, the Menu provides information about consumers and staff that may not be directly working with you.  In either case, you’ll only be able to see the consumers and/or menu items to which you’ve been granted access.  If something is not on your menu that a colleague has, and you feel you should have access to that information, contact your internal Vertex Case Manager Administrator.

The Menu is always available regardless of where you are or what you are working on within Vertex Case Manager.  You might need to scroll to the top of the page to see the menu, but it will always be there at the top.

NOTE

If you do not see a menu at the top of the page, see the article Menu Not Displaying in Case Manager.
