User preferences
The User preferences page contains settings that control how Workplace or Workplace XT application looks each time you log in. These preferences apply only to your
user account for the current application Web site. If your company has more
than one site, you will need to set your preferences on each
site.
Select the type of preference to view or change:
- General: Determines the general settings, shortcut settings, and e-mail settings for displaying information. Some of the preferences you can set include the default view of the lists displayed within pages, the display of confirmation pages, and your e-mail address.
- Search (Workplace): Defines the default search criteria for displaying the Search page. You can define general settings and criteria for document searches, folder searches, and custom object searches.
- Select item page (Workplace XT):
Defines the default search criteria for displaying the Select item page that opens when you are prompted to select an object. You can define general settings and criteria for document searches and folder searches.
- Tasks: Sets notifications and options related to tasks (workflows).
- My Workplace: Defines personalized portlet views. You can create new pages for My Workplace and arrange the content.
- Folder Filter:
Defines the criteria for displaying the contents of folders that have very large numbers of documents. You can set filtering criteria for documents and custom objects.
NOTE The Select iItem page and the Folder filter preferences do not apply to the Workplace XT primary browse page. When viewing these settings in the preferences user interface, you see them marked with an information icon (
