Setting User Profile Options

General Options

Available to all users.

Option	Description
Display Image (Avatar)	Select a JPG, PNG, and GIF file display in work items. For example, the image is shown in the social view item feed or next to notes you add to an item. For best results, select a square image that is not larger than 100 KB. If you do not select an avatar, the first initial of your first name is displayed instead.
Full Name	Change your display name as needed. This setting does not impact your login ID, which is determined by your administrator.
Title	Enter your current title.
Phone	Optionally, provide a phone number.
Mobile Phone	Optionally, provide a mobile phone number.
Password Settings	When you change your password, you are prompted to first provide your existing password. For details about rules for creating passwords, contact your administrator.
Preferred Contact Method	Select your preferred contact method. This enables other users to know which method to use when they want to contact you.
E-mail	Provide at least one e-mail address where you will receive notifications and messages sent to you from other users. E-mail addresses are also used to verify e-mail submissions. Separate multiple addresses with a semi-colon. The first address is used as your "from" address.
E-mail Aliases	Provide e-mail aliases if you use an external e-mail client to submit items or attach messages to items as notes. E-mail addresses are also used to verify e-mail submissions. E-mail messages are never sent to the provided aliases; they are used solely for verification.
E-mail Notification CC-Users	Provide SBM user IDs or names for users who should receive carbon copies of your e-mail notifications. Members of your e-mail CC list only receive carbon copies of notification messages, not e-mail messages sent from work items.
Log On as Another User	Users with appropriate privileges can search for another user in the system, and then log on to Work Center as that user. This is convenient for troubleshooting problems reported by users. All changes that you make to items as another user are recorded in the Change History section for each item. To log back in as yourself, search for and select your user name.

Display Options

Option	Description
Attachments	Select to show attachments to a work item. Attachments can be files, URLs, and links to other items.
Auto Requery	Select to automatically update results for Listing reports, including those viewed in the Editable Grid, or items in Knowledge Base folders (on-premise). This option applies when you update an item so that it no longer fits the criteria of the report, and then select Back to Results. For Knowledge Base folders, the update occurs when an item is added or removed from a folder.

Auto Folder Items	Select this check box to automatically place links to items in the system favorites folders, which include the Inbox, Submitted Items, Transitioned Items, and Updated Items folders. Clearing this check box does not remove links to items already contained in the folders but prevents new item links from being created. You may improve system performance by clearing the Auto Folder Items check box. Note: This option is available only if your administrator has enabled it.
Items Per Page	Specify the number of work items you want shown in search results, report results, and in the Notifications view. For searches and notifications there is a limit of 40 items per page.
Advanced Lookup Defaults	This option sets the default menu choice for the Active/Inactive field on the Advanced Search page and the Relational Field Value Lookup form. This also sets the default choice for the Active/Inactive field in the Manage Data feature in Application Administrator. You can choose to view inactive items, active items, or all items by default.
Restore Saved Form Data	Determines if forms are repopulated with data from the last time that you cancelled out of the form: Always Always restores data from the previous form. You will not be prompted to restore the data.

Note that the Restore Saved Form Data feature is not available in the following situations:

If you visit a URL outside of Work Center before completing the submit, update, or transition.
If you provide data on a form, and then open your user profile and save changes to your profile.
If you select a different transition button when you return to the form. For example, if you click the Update button, add new data to the form, leave the form, return to the item, and then click Assign, the cached data is not restored.
If you start to submit an item into one project or auxiliary table and open a submit in a different project or table.
If you click the browser's refresh or reload button before completing the submit, update, or transition.
