Sign in and find your way around

You will be signed in, know where every module sits in the menu, and have the right financial year selected so the dashboard and lists show the period you work in.

NShine ERP runs in the browser at app.nshineerp.com. Your account is created by your company’s admin under Users, with a role that decides which screens you see. Drivers do not use this login; they use the mobile app with an OTP.

This page is the first ten minutes: sign in, read the menu once, and set the period.

Before You Start

  • Your admin has added you under Users with your email and a role, and has set a password for you (the key icon on the user row).
  • A Financial Year exists in Settings › Financial Year and one is marked active.

Steps

  1. Open app.nshineerp.com and sign in with the email and password your admin gave you. If the password is forgotten, the admin sets a new one from Users with the key icon on your row.
  2. Read the left menu from top to bottom. Daily work sits first: Dashboard, Live Tracking, Drivers, Customers, Vehicles, Bookings. Then grouped menus: AI, Bookings (Booking Schedule, Quotes & Orders), People, Invoices, Payments, Vehicles (Maintenance, Document Tracking, Fuel Tracking, Tyre/Asset Tracking), Reports, Books, Inventory, Payroll, Settings, Users.
  3. Use the global search box in the top bar to jump to a record. Type an LR number, a customer or a vehicle number instead of opening the list and paging.
  4. Click the notification bell to see what the system has flagged. Document expiries, overdue invoices and driver events appear here when the matching toggle is on in Settings › Notification Settings.
  5. Open What’s New once. It lists recent changes to the app. Check it after an update before asking support why a screen looks different.
  6. Pick the financial year in the selector on the Dashboard. Tiles, charts and the bookings grid follow it. Lists such as Bookings have their own financial-year and date-range filters, which default to the same year.
  7. Use the fullscreen control when working on a wide grid, and sign out from the user menu when you leave a shared computer.

What This Changes

  • Signing in records you as Created by on anything you save from now on; the booking view shows Created by and Approved by.
  • The financial year you select changes what the Dashboard tiles, charts and bookings grid add up. It does not move or hide any record.
  • Your role decides which menu items appear. If a module you expect is missing, ask the admin to check your role under Users.

Tips

  • Bookmark app.nshineerp.com; do not search for it each morning.
  • If the dashboard looks empty on a new year, check the selector first. A new Financial Year must be created and set active in Settings before April or January work shows in it.
  • Two menus are called Vehicles and two are called Bookings: the first of each is the list, the grouped one holds the related screens.
