The first screen you see when the application comes up is the one you will likely spend the most time with (see figure). Besides a menu and a toolbar, the screen has three tabs on it Manage, Track, and Observe.
The three main windows are the Summary View (sometimes called the Work Breakdown Structure) on the left, the Attribute table view in the middle, and the Gantt chart on the right. (You can reposition any column in the Attribute table view by dragging and dropping the column headers in the desired place).
Initially, the Manage tab is selected. The Manage, Track and Observe tabs refer to levels of access that you have to various projects, i.e., in the Manage tab you will see projects that you have manage access to, and so on. For the moment, we focus on the Manage tab.
The columns of the Attribute table view display attributes of a project like the estimated time that a task will take to complete ( Estimated Effort ), the estimated start date ( Scheduled Start ) and finish date ( Scheduled Finish ).
