Navigation Pane

The navigation pane on the left side contains two primary navigation panes (global and active case) that control ForeSight navigation and activities.

NOTE: When the page view is optimized, ForeSight displays icons instead of panes on the left and right sides of the screen.

Global Pane

The Global pane contains the primary navigation buttons (or icons in optimized view) to access the global page groups, dialog boxes, and activities within the system: Home, New Case, Case Management, and Contact Management pages. These pages are always available.
