User Desktop

The User Desktop lets administrators perform varying levels of configuration for a particular user. Administrators with Level 2 access, typically department administrators, can change the password for a user and view the Quick Details for a user.

Administrators with Level 1 access can perform all configuration tasks, such as assigning users to departments, setting the PAT Access Level for users, specifying system-wide defaults for all new users in the system, and selecting which modules are available to users on their handheld devices. If a user has access to a variety of modules, Level 1 administrators can also configure those modules for the user.

Once an administrator chooses a user, the settings here are the same as if they were accessed as preferences (under the Prefs tab) for that user. Therefore, for descriptions of these settings see Preferences Desktop.

You access the User Desktop by clicking on the user tab at the top of the screen. The User Desktop consists of a toolbar, a Quick Details area for showing user details, and a View Users pull-down list for filtering users.
