Set up the F2 Manager app

The F2 Manager app can be downloaded on Apple’s App Store on the iPad. There are two ways to set up access to the app: through Settings on the iPad or through the iPad’s web browser.

cBrain offers a version of F2 Manager that is compatible with Microsoft Intune. F2 Manager Intune generally has the same functions as F2 Manager and is available on Apple’s App Store as “F2 Manager Intune”. Contact cBrain for more information.

Setup through Settings

Once the app is downloaded, tap on Settings on the iPad and then on F2 Manager as shown below.

Enter username, password and URL in the designated fields.

It is also possible to log in via AD FS using Azure, if the configuration is enabled. When enabled, the regular login method is not available.

Above the login fields, it is possible to select a language for F2 Manager. F2 Manager is available in Danish, English and German. If no language is selected in the setup, the app uses the iPad’s default language.

Once the setup is done, tap on F2 Manager to open the app. See the figure below.

Setup through a web browser

After completing the setup, the app opens and the fields described in the previous section are automatically filled in by the iPad.

Resetting the app

It is possible to perform a local reset of F2 Manager. Resetting the app means that local data regarding e.g. records and approvals are deleted and content is reloaded. A reset does not affect the user setup, only the user’s app contents.

To reset the F2 Manager app, go to the iPad’s Settings and select F2 Manager. At the bottom of the F2 Manager settings, tap the Reset button.

When F2 Manager is reopened, the local data will be reset. This primarily affects work performed while the iPad was not connected to the Internet. Without an Internet connection the work in the app is not synchronised, but only saved locally. Locally saved work includes processing of approvals and sent chats. If the app is reset before the Internet connection is reestablished, any work that is only saved locally is lost.
