Setting User Preferences


In this use case, users can set a personal language preference and specify whether they also want a paper bill. Setting a preferred language displays all screen text, attributes, error messages, and email notifications in the preferred language for that user each time he or she logs in.

Oracle Self-Service E-Billing is preconfigured with U.S. English only; you must localize your implementation to provide additional languages. For information about localization, see Implementation Guide for Oracle Self-Service E-Billing. If Oracle Self-Service E-Billing is localized and a user has not selected a preferred language, the Billing and Payment application displays in the language configured as the default.

Table 7 lists and describes the Setting User Preferences use case functions.
