The items available will depend on which applications you have installed and your roles and rights to those applications.
Profile Menu
Located in the top Right of your browser window, the Profile menu provides information related to you.
- Language
- The language option in the Profile Menu lets you select your preferred working language for your current session. If translations are available, your selected languages will be displayed on your Hornbill forms. If your language is not available on the provided list, your Hornbill administrator can add your language. This setting is only available until you logout. You can permanently set you language in the Profile Settings.

Activity Panel
On the right hand side of the browser window is the Activity Panel which is a short cut to all of your activities that you have planned. This panel can easily slide out so that it is always visible or it can be collapsed to keep it out of view.
