Overview - SecureConnect

Quick guide on how to use SecureConnect.

  1. Point your browser here: http://secureconnect.d-tools.com/
  2. Login with your user name and password that we gave you.  This will take you to the home page of SecureConnect.  If your forgot your password email adams(at)d-tools.com or timb(at)d-tools.com and we will get you a new one.

  3. Most of your time spent in the app will be in the Inventory/Products section.
  4. Click on Products

  5. This will take you to the "All" filter, which for some reason only shows the Model, working on a fix for that one.  Anyway at this point you can choose a new filter to display or create your own filter.  A filter is a very useful way to manage large quantities of items at once.  More info about creating views and filters.
