To move around in PECS, click the tabs in the navigation bar at the top of the page. The tabs that appear depend on the user role you have been assigned. The example below displays the tabs an Approver would see.
The tabs are repeated as links at the bottom of the page.
Each PECS page has a hidden Go to Main Content link that allows users who are navigating in PECS with the tab key (primarily screen reader and keyboard-only users) to skip the header and navigation portions of the application and bring the main content of the page into focus. The link is only visible when it is selected by using the tab key; it cannot be made visible, clicked, or otherwise selected using the mouse.
To use Go to Main Content using the keyboard:
Screen Reader Users: You can also press Alt+Y to cycle through all the History of Changes tables; Press T to enter the table, then user the arrow keys to move around the table. Press Alt+Y to exit the table.
If the system is idle for 28 minutes, a message will appear indicating your session will end in two minutes. If you don't click OK then click a link on the page or one of the navigation tabs, the system will time out two minutes from the time the message appeared and return you to the login screen. If you click a link within the two minute window, your PECS session will remain active.
