This section describes profile options by category.
The tables in this section provide profile option information as follows:
The Default column displays either the default profile option value in italics, or No Default if none exists.
The User Access column indicates whether you can view or update the profile option.
The System Administration: Site, Application, Responsibility, and User columns indicate at which levels the system administrator can update these profile options.
The key for each table is:
Update: You can update the profile option.
View Only: You can view the profile option but cannot change it.
No Access: You cannot view or change the profile option.
The table below lists the profile options that control debugging and diagnostic features.
| Profile Option | Default | User Access | System Administration: Site | System Administration: Application | System Administration: Responsibility | System Administration: User |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IA: Print Debug | No default | No access | No access | Update | Update | Update |
Indicates whether debug tracing messages are stored in the standard Workflow Status Montitor and printed in concurrent program log files. This profile option is used by Support as a tool to identify a problem with the code.
Yes: Enables printing of debug messages
No: Disables printing of debug messages
(No Value): Equivalent to No
This profile option is visible to the System Administrator and updatable at the application, responsibility, and user levels.
The table below lists the profile options that control security.
| Profile Option | Default | User Access | System Administration: Site | System Administration: Application | System Administration: Responsibility | System Administration: User |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IA: iAssets Rule Name | No default | No access | No access | No access | Update | No access |
Each rule must have a rule name defined in the IA: iAssets Rule Name profile option. Once the rule name is assigned to a responsibility, the responsibility is governed by the controls and options set up in that rule. This profile option must be set at the responsibility level.
Note: The IA: Assets Rule ID profile option is automatically populated based on the value you enter for the IA: iAssets Rule Name profile option. You cannot update the IA: Assets Rule ID profile option.
The table below lists the profile options that control security.
| Profile Option | Default | User Access | System Administration: Site | System Administration: Application | System Administration: Responsibility | System Administration: User |

| IA: iAssets System Administrator | System Administrator | View Only | Update | Update | Update | Update |
This profile option is used to indicate who has ownership of the requests submitted at the different levels. If this profile option is not set, the default System Administrator (SYSADMIN) will have the ownership of all the requests. The standard Workflow Status Monitor may be used to monitor the iAssets requests of which the corresponding system administrator has the ownership.
