Navigating XBuddy

XBuddy holds a whole company’s worth of tools, but the navigation model is simple and consistent. Learn these few controls once and you can move confidently through every app.

The layout

Every screen shares the same frame:

  • App Switcher (top-left) — jump between apps and app groups.
  • Left sidebar — the sections and pages of the app you’re currently in.
  • Top bar — global search, AI Copilot, notifications, language switcher, and your profile menu.
  • Main area — the page content itself.

The App Switcher

The App Switcher is how you move between apps. Click it (top-left) to open a panel organized by the six app groups. Pick an app and the left sidebar reloads with that app’s sections.

You only see apps your tenant has purchased and your admin has granted you. If an app is missing, see Packs & Add-ons.

The per-app sidebar

Once you’re in an app, the left sidebar shows its sections. Most apps follow the same pattern:

SectionWhat it holds
OverviewKPIs and charts for the app
Core featuresThe main working pages (e.g. Invoices, Deals, Employees)
ReportsListings, exports, and analytics for the app
AI HubAI agents and suggestions scoped to the app
WorkflowsAutomation rules for the app
SettingsApp-specific configuration

Sections and pages you don’t have permission for are hidden — so two colleagues in the same app may see different sidebars. This is the Capability axis of access control at work.

The search box in the top bar searches across entities — contacts, invoices, products, and more — from anywhere. Start typing and pick a result to jump straight to that record, no matter which app you’re in.

AI Copilot

The AI Copilot chat lives in the top bar. Ask it questions in plain English or Vietnamese (“show me overdue invoices”, “which deals are stale?”), and it can answer, navigate you to the right page, or run a deeper analysis. See the AI Agents guide for what it can do.

Notifications

The bell icon in the top bar collects everything that needs your attention — approvals awaiting you, AI suggestions, mentions, and status changes. A badge shows unread items.

Language switcher

XBuddy is fully bilingual. Use the EN / VI switcher in the top bar to change the interface language at any time. The switch is instant and keeps you on the same page — no data is lost.

Find your way around — a quick walkthrough

Log in

Sign in with your credentials. You land on your Dashboard, your personalized home.

Open the App Switcher

Click the App Switcher (top-left) to see every app you can access, grouped by app group.

Enter an app

Choose an app — say CRM. The left sidebar now shows CRM’s sections: Overview, Pipeline, Reports, and so on.

Use the sidebar

Navigate within the app using its sidebar sections. Notice that sections you lack permission for simply aren’t shown.

Search from anywhere

Need something in another app? Use global search in the top bar instead of switching apps manually.

Ask the Copilot

Open the AI Copilot and ask a question in your own words. Let it navigate or analyze for you.

Switch language if needed

Toggle EN / VI in the top bar any time — the interface changes instantly.

Remember: what you can see and do is governed by the 4 access axes. If a page, button, or app is missing, it’s usually because your role, your tenant’s subscription, or your admin’s app-access settings don’t include it.
