Standard installation components

The standard installation of t-Point comes with a set of components (called „modules“) required for the project management process.

Core

This is the Base-Module contains the base-settings and the start-page.

(Additionally, there are some predefined methods for easier development.)

User

The User-Module is used to manage the login of users, the management of the user-profiles.

The username and password are saved in the user-table in the Database, wheras the password is encrypted via sha512-Hash-Function after it was “salted”. (Find more Informations about the Security in Security-Section)

More informations on how-to reset your password: Password-Informations

Admin

The admin module provides the Permission-Management for users and the management of list-entries. This section can only be accessed, if the Admin-Permissions are granted (usually ROLE_ADMIN) and is not part of the Project-Managment-Modules.

Contacts

The Contact module has the purpose to organze all contacts used in the system (There are some exceptions - they are explained later). The Contact module contains a management-interface for persons & companies and for contact-groups.

Additionally, the Contact module provides a interface to sync the contacts to your mobile devicees. See this Article to gain more infos about the use.
