10 Introduction: Using Breeze Manager
New Breeze Manager tabs
There are four new tabs, each representing a new functionality, that have been added to the Breeze
Manager interface:
• Training tab. This tab replaces and incorporates all the features from the previous Courses tab,
but also adds the ability to create and manage curriculums as well. See Chapter 6, “Working
with Training Curriculums,” on page 81.
• Seminar Rooms tab. A seminar room is a type of meeting room that is used to hold large live
events. See Chapter 11, “About Seminars,” on page 159, Chapter 12, “Working with
Seminars,” on page 165, and Chapter 13, “Managing the Seminar Library,” on page 181.
• Event Management tab. An event can be any meeting, training, seminar, or presentation that
requires registration and special reporting data. Since it is normally used to manage a large
number of users at a time, the events functionality enables you to do bulk imports of large user
lists via CSV (comma separated values) files. In addition, event reports include special features
for participant data. See Chapter 14, “About Events,” on page 195, Chapter 15, “Working
with Events,” on page 201, and Chapter 16, “Managing the Event Library,” on page 221.
• Administration tab. This tab combines the account administrator, reporting, and user
management (the former Accounts, Reports, and Users tabs) functions used by Breeze
administrators, with several new features and enhancements added. See “New features for
Breeze administrators” on page 11, as well as Chapter 17, “About Administration,” on
page 235, Chapter 18, “Managing the Breeze Account,” on page 237, and Chapter 19,
“Working with Users and Groups,” on page 255.
In addition, the Reports tab has been removed because the reporting functionality has been
moved into the individual tabs. Report functionality has been considerably enhanced; see
“Reporting features” on page 10.
General application additions and enhancements
Breeze 5.0 has a new user interface, which makes Breeze Manager easier to use, and includes some
additional features. For information about this, see Chapter 1, “Understanding the Workspace,”
on page 15.
Reporting features
All the Breeze Manager functionalities have increased reporting capabilities, including the ability
to set report filters and download or print reports.
A completely new reporting feature is the Dashboard. This feature provides a dashboard for each
tab, with a graphical representation of statistical information relevant to the tab’s function. Each
Dashboard allows you to drill down to view more information on a specific item.
List navigation
Any list of user and group names that you use now has a Search button that enables you to locate
a name in the list. You can also expand a group in a list to see the members, as well as select
multiple names.
