Use the test mode manager

Introduction

The test mode manager allows you to safely practice using and configuring ParagonERP without affecting your live data.
 

Process description:

You have the option to transfer your live information into this test mode environment, enabling you to make changes without any impact on your actual system. This is a perfect environment to get you used to using ParagonERP as a new user, or to test out a new process without affecting your live tasks.
 

Step-by-step instructions:

  • Step 1: Access the test mode manager

From the Paragon home page, click the settings button.

From the settings page, under the system card, select test mode manager.

 

 

  • Step 2: Reset Test Mode

Test Mode must be reset before you use it the first time. You will not be able to access Test Mode until it has been reset at least once.

 
To do that, simply click the reset test mode button:
 
 
Another modal will appear to confirm you'd like to proceed.
 
 

Click the accept button. When the reset is finished a success notification will be displayed on the top right of the screen.

 

  • Step 3: Start test mode

 
To log in to your test mode, click the start test mode button from test mode manager:

 
You'll be automatically logged out of your current Paragon session and brought to a log-in screen. Note that there is an indicator that you are logging in to test mode. Use your usual live system credentials to log in.
 

You can always tell when you're in test mode by the indicator on the Paragon header bar:

 
Remember, you can update your test system anytime to have the most current data and settings from your live system. Simply reset test mode as sampled above.
 

All your current test data will be lost if you reset test mode. It will be replaced by a copy of your current live data.

Resetting Test Mode might take a few minutes. You can always leave this screen and return to your regular work while you wait for the reset to complete.  When the reset is finished, a success notification will be displayed on the top right of the screen.
