Creating and Modifying User Profiles

In the Fast Path, enter P0092 to access the User Profiles application.

  1. On the Work With User/Role Profiles form, perform one of the following tasks:

    • If you want to create a new user profile, click Add.

    • If you want to modify an existing profile, click Find, select a user profile in the grid, and then click Select.

  2. On the User Profile Revisions form, in the User ID field, enter a user ID for the individual profile.

    If you are modifying a user profile, this field displays the user ID. You cannot type new information in this field when you modify a profile.

  3. In the header area of the form, complete the remaining fields:

    Address Number

    A number that identifies an entry in the Address Book system, such as employee, applicant, participant, customer, supplier, tenant, or location.

    WhosWhoLineID

    A value that references the Who's Who Line ID in the Address Book record.

    Batch Job Queue

    The computer waiting line that a particular job passes through. If blank, it defaults to the job queue specified in the user's job description.

  4. In the Display Preferences area, complete the following fields and then click OK.

    Language

    A user defined code (01/LP) that specifies the language to use on forms and printed reports. Before you specify a language, a code for that language must exist at either the system level or in the user preferences.

    Justification

    An option that determines how text is to be read, left to right or right to left. This option is enabled only when Arabic is selected as the language. For all other languages, the system automatically selects the left to right option.

    Set Accessibility Mode

    An option that enables the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne web client to be accessible through the JAWS screen reader software for visually impaired users. The option is deselected by default when a user profile is created.

    Set Simplified Mode (9.1 Update 5)

    An option that enables users to view the EnterpriseOne interface in Standard or Simplified mode. Standard mode is for users who need access to the full range of EnterpriseOne actions. If users are in Standard mode, they are able to view the Navigation bar, the Carousel, the Fast Path (if they have the appropriate permissions), and Breadcrumbs.

    Simplified mode is for users who need a scaled-down interface that provides only limited actions in EnterpriseOne. In Simplified mode, users see the Banner Bar, Personalization, Help, Username, Environment, and Sign Out options.

    Set Service-only Mode (9.2 Update 6)

    This option provides an additional layer of security by allowing the security administrator to designate that an EnterpriseOne user is a service-only user, and therefore is denied access to the EnterpriseOne sign-on page and any direct interactive access to applications while still allowing the user to execute AIS REST services and access to Orchestrator Studio.

    Date Format

    The format of a date as it is stored in the database.

    These date formats are valid: YMD, MDY, DMY, EMD. If you leave this field blank, the system displays dates based on the settings of the operating system on the workstation. With NT, the Regional Settings in the Control Panel control the settings for the operating system of the workstation.

    Date Separator Character

    The character to use when separating the month, day, and year of a given date. If you enter an asterisk, the system uses a blank for the date separator. If you leave the field blank, the system uses the system value for the date separator.

    Decimal Format Character

    The number of positions to the right of the decimal that you want to use. If you leave this field blank, the system value is used as the default.

    Localization Country Code

    A code that identifies a localization country. It is possible to attach specific county functionality that is triggered baed on this code using the country server methodology in the base product.

    Universal Time

    A code that you use to associate a time zone with a user's profile. This code represent the user's preferred time zone, and it must be a value from the UDC table (H91/TZ).

    Time Format

    A value that determines the user's preferred format for time-of-day. The user can choose from a  12- or 24-hour clock.

    Daylight Savings Rule

    The rule name that specifies the daylight savings rule for a region or country.

    See "Creating Daylight Savings Rules" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools System Administration Guide.
