Getting Around: Navigation & Basics

This chapter is your map of the Gurita screen: how to sign in, what the top bar and sidebar do, and the handful of interface patterns — search, filters, forms, pop-ups, confirmations — that repeat on almost every page. Read it once and the rest of this guide will feel familiar, because every later chapter builds on the patterns explained here. It's written for anyone who logs into Gurita, from front-desk staff to managers.

Who can access this: Everything in this chapter is available to any signed-in user. Where a specific button or menu needs an extra permission or module, that's noted alongside it.
