2 IMDS – Getting started
2.1 Basic Requirements
To access IMDS the user needs an internet connection and a supported browser. Technical constraints make it necessary that the user please use one of the browser versions supported by HPE (the user can find these versions on http://www.mdsystem.com IMDS Information Pages IMDS System) e.g. the Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 8.0 or Firefox in its current version. There may be other browsers and versions that will work with IMDS, but the Helpdesks can only assist if the user has issues while using the supported browsers. In all cases, in the internet options of the browser, the user must enable Java Scripting. If their browser does not have the correct options enabled, the user will not be able to perform required actions within the application. In IMDS, as with many other transactional web applications, browser navigation keys and buttons such as “Back” interrupt the IMDS system control and do not have the desired effect. The user will need to use the IMDS buttons and functions within the main portions of the IMDS screens to navigate.
2.2 Company Registration
Note: Each company or company site is allowed one IMDS registration. This is done to prevent confusion within their own company and between their company and their customers and suppliers. We ask that the user check first with the IMDS Service Desk before registering their company online. Once registered, any Company Administrator can create users and other Company Administrators. As people within a company frequently change jobs or leave the company, we strongly suggest a minimum of two (2) Company Administrators per IMDS company.
A company can be registered on our homepage: IMDS Information Pages IMDS Login Registration Register your company.
