Navigating Mastt: A Comprehensive Guide for New Users
When you first log into Mastt, you'll navigate from the My Projects page to specific projects, then use the sidebar to access different modules. Use three-dot menus throughout the platform to make changes, access your profile menu for admin features and help, and always look for the Mastt logo to return home. This consistent navigation approach works throughout the entire platform.
Use this guide to move around Mastt with confidence: switch between the Home page and individual projects, move between modules, make changes with the three-dot menus, and find help and admin functions.
Before you start
- A Mastt account with login credentials
- Access to at least one project in your workspace
- Basic understanding of project management concepts
Start on the Home page
When you first log in to Mastt, you land on the Home page. The left sidebar gives you access to either Projects or Programs (if available in your workspace), and project shells appear across the main area of the screen.
Open a project

- Alternatively, click the three dots on a project to go directly to a module:
- Cost Module
- Risk Module
- Schedule Module
- Project Settings

Navigate within a project
When you first click into your project, you start at the dashboard. The sidebar is your primary navigation tool and gives you access to all the modules Mastt offers.
Sidebar options
- Dashboard
- Cost module
- Risk module
- Schedule module
- Audit log
- Documents
- Snapshot
- Task
- Project settings (at the bottom)
Use module tabs
Inside a module (like the cost module), you'll see tabs across the top. These tabs let you navigate to different areas within that module. Each module has its own unique set of tabs.
Return to Home
To go back to the Home page at any time, do either of the following:
- Click Home in the sidebar.
- Click the Mastt logo at the top of the sidebar.
Make changes with three-dot menus
Three-dot menus (either horizontal or vertical) indicate where you can make changes. This is a consistent pattern throughout the entire platform. When you see three dots, it's an invitation to make changes.
Click the dots to reveal options for:
- Adding new items
- Editing existing items
- Deleting items
- Accessing additional functions
Where to find three-dot menus
- Next to project names on the My Projects page
- Next to items in tables and lists
- In the top corner of dashboard tiles
- Next to most editable items throughout the system
Additional navigation tips
| Feature | What it does |
|---|---|
| Breadcrumb navigation | Some areas display breadcrumbs at the top of the screen. They show your current location and provide clickable links to parent pages. |
| Filters and search | Many modules include filter options to narrow down displayed information. Look for filter icons or search fields to quickly find specific items. |
| Expandable sections | In areas like the Cost Module, you'll find expandable sections. Click the arrow icon next to an item to expand or collapse its details. This helps manage complex information hierarchies. |
