Welcome to Sign OS — the 2-minute tour

Find your way around the sidebar, Search, ReAct and Help.

What this is for

Sign OS runs your whole shop — quoting, jobs, production, purchasing and invoicing — in one place. This quick tour shows you where everything lives so nothing feels hidden.

Step by step

  1. 1

    The sidebar on the left is your main menu. The day-to-day items — Home, Quotes, Jobs, Invoicing, Approvals, Production, Customers and Outbound — are the everyday work, and Reports is where you ask your own questions of the numbers. HR & Safety, if your shop has it, holds licences, leave and the safety records. Purchasing, Catalogue and Settings hold the setup. You can put the links in your own order from View.

  2. 2

    Use the Search anything… box near the top of the sidebar to jump straight to any quote, job, customer or setting by name. It is the fastest way to move around.

  3. 3

    Just below Search is the Ask ReAct button — your AI assistant. Ask it a question in plain English any time you are unsure what to do.

  4. 4

    At the bottom of the sidebar: Alerts is your notifications, Clock is the day clock if your shop uses time keeping, View opens your own display settings (list rows, sidebar style and link order), Account is your own details, and Help opens this Help centre again.

  5. 5

    That is the whole app. Everything else is just doing the work inside these areas — and every task has a guide here in Help.

Tips & gotchas
