ResultsManager includes a small set of demonstration maps that you can experiment with. This lets you try out some of the features before you start capturing and reorganising your own activities. But do note that other people's action items are far less interesting than your own - you will connect with ResultsManager quicker by creating your maps containing your actions and projects.

The ResultsManager Wizard (ResultsMerlin) will personalise the demonstration maps for you by creating activities owned by your colleagues, and assigning current dates.

• Click on the ResultsManager tab | Help group | ResultsMerlin and select the Express Wizard.
• Answer the questions up to the point where ResultsMerlin asks you if you want to create a Map Central map.
• If you have not done this yet, or if you want to overwrite your existing Map Central, answer "Yes", and ResultsMerlin will automatically include the personalised demonstration maps.
• If you have already created a Map Central map and don't want to overwrite, then answer "No", and ResultsMerlin will allow you to create the demonstration maps separately. Answer "Yes" when it asks you if you want it to personalise the demonstration maps.
• When ResultsMerlin has finished, click the ResultsManager tab | Dashboard group | Create Dashboard, select the Daily Actions Dashboard (Express User), and click OK. ResultsManager will sweep the maps connected to Map Central and will create a dashboard so that you can decide what you need to do today from these fictional projects.

  You can also try the other Dashboards on the demonstration maps, to see how different dashboards create different perspectives and analyses. You will need to change to "Power User mode" in the ResultsManager tab | Options group | User Mode to see more dashboards listed under the ResultsManager tab | Dashboard group | Create Dashboard.

   

  With the Dashboard map in view, click the "Outline" button in the Action bar in MindManager to work in Outline mode:

  If you accidentally trash your demonstration maps, you can recreate them by running the Wizard again at the ResultsManager tab | Options group | ResultsMerlin | Express Setup Wizard.
