About Browsers
MyU3A will operate effectively on Desktops, laptops, notebooks, tablets, smart phones and surfaces.
Most MyU3A components will work effectively on any platform and with almost any of the usual browsers.
However problems on Windows platforms may be experienced on earlier versions of Internet Explorer (prior to version 9). If you have problems, download the free Firefox (recommended) or Google Chrome browser, use it instead and the problems will disappear.
Overview of MyU3A
Most U3As will already be using one of the commercially available financial packages to manage and report the General Ledger processes, so these functions are not included in MyU3A, although MyU3A has the neccessary interfaces to these processes.
With the General Ledger processes excepted, Myu3a incorporates all the business and information processes which enable the complete management of the administration your U3A.
Getting Started
Your MyU3A has three databases:
- The Live database with your operational information;
- The Practise database used for training and trying out for the first time without affecting your operational information. This is overwritten each night with the information from your Live database.
- The Support database used by your support team member(s) for tracking down problems and trying out different configuration settings without disturbing either your operational information or people who may be using the Practise database.
While you are getting going, your entry point is the index page containing the sample links to your Live database.
This page is only used during setup. For routine use, these links are placed on your website to provide access to MyU3A which sits behind your web site.
