How to Use Help

Help provides complete information on how to use the NH MMIS Health Enterprise Portal.

To view Help in the NH MMIS Health Enterprise Portal

Each NH MMIS Health Enterprise Portal page has one or more Help links.

At the rightmost corner of the page, click the Help link. See image

Note: All pages may not have a Help link on the action bar. Help opens up in a separate Web browser and a topic related to the page is displayed.

To use the Help toolbar

The table of contents and navigation bar for access to the search, glossary and favorites panels are on the left side of the window.

You can use the toolbar at the top of the Help window. Closed See image

You can do the following:

Help topics that you use often can be added to the Favorites panel in Help. Find the topic you want to add to Favorites, and then click the Favorites () icon.

Note: Favorites are only available during an open Help session. Favorites are deleted after Help is closed.
In the field to the left of the Quick Search () icon, enter a word or phrase and then click the icon. Each instance of the word in the current topic is highlighted.
To remove the highlights on the topic, click the Remove Highlights () icon.
To open or close the Help's navigation panel containing the Table of Contents, Search, Glossary of Acronyms, and Favorites, click the Show\Hide Navigation () icon.

To browse the Help Table of Contents

The Table of Contents is seen when the title at the top of the left panel contains the word, Contents. Closed See image

Help Table of Contents for public user

In the Contents panel at left, to expand the view and show the topics in that book, click any book () icon.
To view that topic in a book, click any topic () icon.

To use "You are here:"

Above each Help topic, there are links called breadcrumbs. These links (breadcrumbs) provide you with a roadmap to the topic in Help. The label for the breadcrumbs is: You are here. Closed See image

Each item listed is separated by the symbol > (the greater than icon).

The first item is the name of the main book in the Table of Contents that the topic is associated with. The second item is the name of the book where the topic resides. The last item is the name of the topic that is displayed in Help.

By clicking a link on the You are here line, Help displays the topic associated with the book title.

For example, in the image above, if you click Providers, you would go to a topic called: About Provider Tasks. If you click Enrollment, you would go to a topic called: What Is Provider Enrollment? If you click Provider Enrollment Pages, you would go to the topic called: About Provider Enrollment Pages.

Note: Not all breadcrumbs consist of three items. Breadcrumbs change based upon the topic being displayed in Help.
