View Profiles

View profiles are a method of customizing the look-and-feel of Suite applications for a group of users. As such, view profiles can make the managing of a large number of users easier— decisions are made by view profile, rather than by individual users. On the View Profile window, assign groups of users to a view profile or profiles. Later, you can define field and tab specifics by view profile.

Data access in Suite can be managed with view profiles. A user group is assigned to one or more view profiles; this group then determines the modules and the tabs within a module to which the user will have access.

þÿSetting a field to hidden in a view profile is not the same as restricting access to data in the database. The field will not appear on the tab if it is hidden; however, the information contained in the field may still appear in reports. Use Security Attribute Profiles to restrict access to data.

Module Level Customizations

Customizations that can be made to a module by view profile are:

  • Caption (label change)
  • Position
  • Hidden

Tab Level Customizations

Customizations that can be made to a tab by view profile are:

  • Caption (label change)
  • Position
  • Read-only
  • Hidden

Field Level Customizations

The customizations available are dependent on the data type of the field selected. The customizations that can be made to fields by view profile are as follows:

  • Caption (label change)
  • Hint (tooltip when mouse pointer hovers over field)
  • Read-only
  • Hidden
  • Specific data entry format for user-defined fields (see Customizing a User-defined Field)
