List of the Common Profile Switches

Table 12-1 lists the profile switches that you can configure using the options in the List Maintenance tab. For each profile switch, the table specifies the name of the switch, indicates whether the switch is a global-level or an enterprise-level switch, and provides a brief description.

All the global-level switches are displayed, updated, and audit logged in the default enterprise.

When profile switch ARGUS INSIGHT APPLICATION DATA SOURCE is set to Oracle Argus Mart, the following profile switched will NOT be available for configuration:

  • KEEP REPORT DATA
  • LEGACY REPORT CONFIGURATION (with default value set to 0, so that other reporting switches are no visible)
  • POPULATE AFFILATE DATA
  • POPULATE BLOB DATA
  • POPULATE INTERCHANGE CLOB DATA
  • POPULATE INTERCHANGE DATA

For more information about viewing and editing profile switches, see "Configure the Oracle Argus Insight Application Profile Switches". The first column specifies the name of the switch, the second column specifies whether the switch is a global-level (that is, application) or enterprise-level switch, and the third column provides notes, if any, about the switch.
