Section 3:What is WebTS &

Why are We Using It?

 WebTS is the systems platform that enables you to use DPW CIS transaction screens (provider screens, TPL screens,, etc.) using a Web based browser. Previously, these screens were only accessible by using a software called ‘Info-Connect’ or ‘Accessory Manager’. To keep pace with current technology, we’ve enabled these screens to be accessible using a web browser. Info Connect/Accessory Manager is still available however it will eventually be deleted from most users’ PCs. Now is the time to become familiar with WebTS. Using WebTS in lieu of Info Connect/Accessory Manager will allow us time to correct any problems that may occur before Info Connect/Accessory Manageris taken off your PC. NOTE: The switch from Info Connect/Accessory Manager to WebTS, DOES NOT affect security. Proper authorization and permissions are still needed to allow users access to appropriate transactions. Although you have the DPW CIS TransactionsI-con on your desktop that alone does not mean you may access any or all WebTS transactions.

Overwrite / Insert ModesOverwrite / Insert ModesThere are two different modes available when keying data input on the screens. The modes are ‘Overwrite’ and ‘Insert’.

When the Explorer window for WebTS is opened the system default is the ‘Overwrite Mode’. When the ‘Overwrite Mode’ is active it can be identified by the letters ‘OVR’ on the bottom of the screen. Specifically, the ‘OVR’ designation is located to the right of the ‘Submit Button’. If OVR is not displayed then the ‘Insert Mode’ is active.It is easy to switch between the ‘Overwrite’ and ‘Insert modes’. On the keyboard there is a key labeled ‘Insert’. Depress the key and watch the line on the bottom of the screen where the ‘Submit Button’ is located. When ‘OVR’ is displayed and you depress the ‘Insert Key’, ‘OVR’ disappears and the ‘Insert Mode’ is activated. Depress the ‘Insert Key’ again and ‘OVR’ appears and is now the active mode.

If data changes are required, using ‘Insert Mode’ data may be inserted where the cursor is located, without writing over existing data. When using the ‘Insert Key’ any data to the right of the cursor will be moved to the right to allow for the newly keyed characters. When the data field is full, all characters moved past the last character position in the field are dropped. 

The ‘Overwrite Mode’ provides the user with “type over” existing data functionality without moving any existing characters.
