Using the Aptify Button in the Desktop Client

The Aptify button is located in the upper left hand corner of the Aptify Desktop client. It replaces the File menu seen in earlier versions of Aptify.

Clicking the Aptify button offers the following options:

• New: This option opens a new record in the currently selected service. (This option is grayed out if you have an application selected.) This provides the same functionality as the New button on the Quick Access Toolbar. See Using the Quick Access Toolbar for more information.
