Introduction
Integrify Mobile was designed to allow users to make requests and approvals from any device. By detecting your browser, Integrify will automatically direct you to the appropriate client homepage that is optimized for your specific device.
All versions of Integrify feature common elements. Below are explanations of those as well as the formatting conventions used in this manual to organize and present this information.
Please Note:
Integrify Mobile was designed to meet basic “on-the-go” approval and request needs. Use of the traditional browser-based application is required to develop and manage processes and work with requests that rely heavily on scripted calculations and dynamic functionality. As such, due to its complexity, the Custom Grid Plugin will not work via Integrify Mobile.
Navigation Menu
The main navigation menu is located on the left-hand side of the Integrify desktop and tablet screen and is the central feature for the smartphone. This menu is the hub for all actions within the system.
Desktop View:
Tablet View:
Smartphone View:
Menu selections and commands are presented in boldface text separated by a “greater than” symbol (>) (e.g., Menu > Command) throughout this manual.
For Example:
-
- To start a request, select My Dashboard > Start a Request.
- To view System Settings, select Administration > System Settings.
- To view a list of available reports, select My Dashboard > My Reports
Common Navigation and Touch Interfaces
The Mobile application takes advantage of several industry standards for navigation.
Pull To Refresh – A common gesture-based action, this command will allow users to trigger a refresh of screen content, including filtered lists. To use, place finger at top of screen and drag down approximately 1-inch. You will then see a message to “Release to Refresh” upon doing which your content will update accordingly.
Touch Scrolling – Also considered dragging, this gesture allows users to scroll or pan through a window’s full content. By touching whitespace or non-linked content, a user can use their finger in an up or down motion to view the entire page.
Tap to Select – A single tap of your finger on a specific element will allow you to open, select or activate that item – just like clicking with a mouse.
Menu Options
The following elements are available through all navigation menus:
Home – Return to the homepage from any location in the application
Start A Request – Begin a new request within the Integrify system.
* Can’t find the request you want to start? Check with your Administrator – The mobile start feature for the request may have been disabled or you may not have the permissions required to view this process. |

Switch to Desktop – Quickly allows you to switch to the full desktop version of Integrify. This will limit your use of “mobile” features such as touch-screen scrolling but allow full access to the Integrify system.
Keep Menu Closed - Use this feature to minimize the menu list. The menu will remain closed until you expand it by clicking on the menu icon at the top of the screen.
