There are two ways to navigate to a function in Oracle Mobile Sales Assistant: drill down on a field, or use the Shortcut bar. Drilling down on a field refers to activating a link from one function to another. For example, while viewing an appointment you can click a contact's name and display that contact's full information. The Shortcut bar is at the bottom of the Today screen. It contains links to each of the major functions within Oracle Mobile Sales Assistant. For more information on the Shortcut bar, see Accessing Today's Items.
