PREFACE
Welcome to the Defence Investment Division Web Portal (henceforth DI Portal) based on Microsoft
SharePoint.
Instructions in this user guide will provide you with guidelines on basic navigation (how to get around)
and how to set up your user profile so that your email account will receive alerts/notifications when
certain items in the DI Portal are modified (i.e. documents and/or libraries added, edited or deleted,
events calendars updated, etc...). It will focus on basic SharePoint functionality which you need to
know in order to remain aware of the information that is being shared on the various Sub-Sites and
their respective Communities of Interest (henceforth COI) pages.
This User Guide is divided into three sections :
 Section 1 : DI Portal access;
 Section 2 : Setting up your user account;
 Section 3 : Basic Navigation.
Note that for this User Guide :
 All words in bold indicate a command you must click on in order to perform a function;
 All text within “quotation marks” refers to content found on the site (i.e. field names or
instructions); and,
 All text in italics indicates content that you, as the user, must type into the various forms (i.e.
data into a field).
Should you require any user assistance, contact the respective Sub-Site Administrator for the COI in
question.
This list of Sub-Site Administrators is available in the ‘Help’ section on the DI Portal. Simply click on
Help either in the top links bar or in the left navigation menu.
This User Guide is also available in the ‘Help’ section in the document library below the list of SubSite Administrators. Simply click on the document name in the “Name” column.
