Service: Theme
How to get there: Admin | Service | Theme
From this page, the user can create, edit and view a system wide theme that is applied to both PDF and read-only versions of Incidents and Tours. PDF versions of content are those that are generated and accessed when downloading a copy of an incident or a tour within the Service Desk. Read-only versions of Incidents and Tours are those that are sent automatically by Timegate Web’s Contact Alerting to Contacts stored within the system that do not have access to Timegate Web (rather than to Timegate Web Users). These themes do not alter the look and feel of Incidents and Tours when viewed natively in the Service Desk or within the Service Delivery of the Employee App. These retain the default Timegate Web look and feel.
Note: When you configure your theme, if it is done incorrectly or, if the theme becomes corrupt, by default, the theme will be the standard Timegate Web one, without a logo.
