Personal views are like search or filter queries that you have named and saved. After creating a personal view, you will be able to reuse it without re-creating its underlying search or filter query. To reuse a personal view, click the name of that view on the Views tab in the Browse pane. The Web Interface applies the search or filter query saved in the view, and displays the results in the list with the same set of columns and sort order as when you created the view.

When you select a view in the Browse pane, Web Interface applies the search or filter query saved in the view, and displays the results in the list with the same set of columns and sort order as when you created the view.

The User Profile Editor section in the Web Interface site for self-administration gives you a convenient way to display and update your own identity information, such as your telephone numbers or mail address in your user account. The contents of the pages in the User Profile Editor section can be customized by the Active Roles administrator, who can add new elements to the pages, modify or remove existing elements, and regroup related elements on different tabbed pages.
To view or modify your user account
-
In your web browser, go to the address (URL) of the Web Interface site for self-administration.
By default, the address is http://<server>/ARWebSelfService where <server> stands for the name of the server running the Web Interface.
-
On the Web Interface Home page, click User Profile Editor.

Use the page provided by the Web Interface to view or modify your user account.

Click the Save button to apply your changes.
It is up to the Active Roles administrator to determine what information you are authorized to view or modify on the User Profile Editor page. Some fields on the page might not be editable. The fields that you are not permitted to modify appear on the page as read-only text. The properties that you are not permitted to view are not displayed on the User Profile Editor page.
