Settings

By using Settings, you can specify:

  • The language of the Web Interface pages.

  • The maximum number of objects displayed in single-page lists.

  • The maximum number of list items displayed on a single page in multi-page lists.

  • The maximum number of links to pages displayed for multi-page lists.

  • Maximum time in minutes, for which the notification is to be visible.

  • Maximum number of notifications to be stored in Active Roles.

You can also enable Show objects owned by inheritance or secondary ownership. Selecting this check box allows Self-Administration Web Interface users to view objects in My Managed Resources even if the user is not assigned to the objects as the primary owner (manager), but as a secondary or inherited owner.

Settings are saved on a per-user basis in the configuration of the Web Interface site. For more information on changing these settings, see Changing personal settings.

Customization

Customization allows you to tailor the Web Interface to suit the specific needs of your organization. The Customization menu appears only if you are logged in as an Active Roles Admin. The default Active Roles Admin account is created during the configuration of the Active Roles Administration Service.

Customization includes the following tasks:

  • Directory Objects: Modify menus, commands, and forms for administering directory objects. View or change global settings, such as the logo image and color scheme.

  • Restore Default: Restore the original (default) menus, commands, and forms, discarding all previous customizations.

  • Reload: Reload the menus, commands, and forms that you have customized.

The customization settings determine the configuration of the Web Interface site for all users.

For more information about customizing the Web Interface, see Customizing the Web Interface in the Active Roles Web Interface Configuration Guide.
