One of the biggest changes with this version of ASAP is the interface. We've updated the look and feel and moved some features and modules around. All of this is to help streamline your experience, make it faster, cleaner, and more intuitive how to maneuver in the program. The navigation menu has new items on it, we've added a ribbon with additional functionality across the top, and now most pages have menus that contain the functionality available for that page.

Navigation menu
The Navigation menu is organized into three sections:
- The "people links" are at the top (companies, staff & students).
- The "module" links are in the middle (things like classes, invoices, products).
- The "tools and set up" links are at the bottom (things like attendance, communications, reporting, financials, general settings).
Find
The popular Find options from classic ASAP have moved to their own spot on the Navigation menu.
Set Up
All things "set up" are now located under the new Set Up menu option on the Navigation menu. Lots of what you find under in classic ASAP have moved under Set Up.
ASAP ribbon
The ASAP ribbon is found at the top of each page. The ASAP ribbon contains:
- Search feature
- User account logout
- Access to support
- Access to your public portal
- Access to the latest news
Page menus
Filter, edit, create, add, print, and configure tasks are found in a menu located on most pages. Depending on where you are in ASAP, and your access rights, your page menu will have one or more of these icons, and the options within them may vary.
Let's talk about what each icon represents.
This is the Filter icon. Use it to fine tune your search criteria. You will see this throughout the program wherever you can apply filters to your searches.
This is the Views icon. You'll find this on an invoice. One invoice can include multiple items and various discounts, fees, adjustments for each item. Sometimes you just want to see a summary and other times you want to see all the specifics on the invoice. Clicking this button allows you to display full details, medium details, or just the summary details on your invoice.
All the information is included on the invoice, this button just gives you a way to show or hide what you want to see.
This is the Print icon. Wherever you can print throughout the program, you will see the Printer icon.
This is the Add icon. You'll find this on many of the pages. Use it to add additional, or create new students, courses, classes, products, etc.
This pencil is the Edit icon. You will see this wherever you can make edits to an item, typically on an invoice.
This ellipsis is the More Options icon. When clicked, all the options that you can perform on a page are listed. You will see this icon often throughout the program.
