The main menu on the left side of the screen gives you access to all core features of the Interu platform. Each icon corresponds to a different section of the platform, grouped by data type.

Interu's navigation structure reflects the platform’s core data types:

  • Static data – Information that changes infrequently such as Organisations, Locations, Products, Materials, and Countries. Typically reviewed annually.

  • Transaction data – Records that change frequently, including Deliveries, Items and Processes. These are reviewed with each transaction.

  • Evidence data – Supporting documents such as invoices, shipping documents, certificates, audit reports... that validate static or transactional records.

To navigate:

  1. Use the Main Menu icons on the left-hand side of the screen

  2. Hover over an icon to view its label

  3. Click an icon to access the corresponding Feature
