Selecting a HomePage

   Overview   

The fluid interface in the UGA Financial Management System uses tiles to access different activities, making it easy to use on a variety of devices.

Different roles may have different home pages in the system. If you have multiple roles assigned to you, you may have multiple home pages from which to work.

If you are assigned to different roles with different homepages, you can move between them easily.
