Starting your first project

When logging in for the first time and with no previous products or projects saved, you will be directed to the edit settings screen and requested to enter your user information.

If you have been provided with a demo project you will be directed straight to the product list screen.

Otherwise and with no other projects started, you see the following screen.

1. Click on New Project

This screen will only be visible the first time you log in, or if you have deleted all the projects in your dashboard.

2. Enter the Product Designation

This product name will be used throughout the application, appearing in your final documentation and declarations. You can edit it at any time later, but choose it carefully. Then click "Create". You will be taken to the product overview.

3. Select your native project language

At this point you can decide whether the language with which the project is created should match the CERTAIN application language chosen on screen.

Any document translations undertaken or declarations created in the application will then use this language as the basis and starting point.

4. Click on Create

Your new project will be created and added to the project list.

💡 Using a previous CERTAIN project as a template

To save significant time and effort repeating work on similar families of products, you also have the option here to use a previous product as a template for your next.

If you select this option a dropdown will open allowing you to choose an existing project. In this case, you must define a new product name for the duplicate project before proceeding.

5. Product Overview

This is the product overview page. At this point it is still empty with only the product designation visibile.

On the left you can see the CERTAIN main menu. This will be explained in detail separately.

On the right you can see the first three steps in the process, ready for you to begin.

6. Click on the Key Data button

You'll then begin entering your key project and product information.
