Ideagen EHS - Enterprise and Decani Users
No elevated permissions are required.
Users can change certain platform related information in their profile. Access the Profile Menu screen by clicking the avatar icon in the upper right-hand corner of any screen.
Hiding the My Profile feature
Organizations that use a REST API to connect to an HR system can limit My Profile changes. When Hide Edit Profile is enabled through the admin User screen, My Profile will be hidden, and the Profile Menu will begin with Requests.
The following features can be updated from the My Profile menu when enabled:
- Avatar Image: When there is no avatar image available, the system will show the user’s first and last initials instead. Avatars are used across the system to represent user information, such as an assigned person icon. (max 1 KB)
- Contact Information: Name, email address, and telephone number. Editing this information may be restricted by the administrator.
- Login Password: Login and password configurations are customised to align with the specific business requirements and security standards of the organisation. Certain policies permit users to modify their password via the profile menu.
-
Notification Preferences: Users can choose to change the default notification settings
- Notify If: Defaults to "Email"
- Notify When Defaults to "Immediately"
- Include Team Items: Users will receive notifications for team assignments when enabled
- Preferred UI: (Miramar or Classic)
- Assignment Sort Preference: Defaults to Priority, Due Date, then Last Updated
- Enabled Beta Features: Users can view and test platform changes before they are released into production when enabled
- Alternates: Individuals designated to manage your assignments and notifications during your absence.
My Profile also displays the following information that is managed by system administrators:
- Time Zone: The User's Time Zone. Note, the user and solutions server could be in different time zones.
- SSO Endpoint URL: A subscriber's login identifier specific to the URL or digital location where an API receives requests and sends responses.
-
Language: Sets the user's preferred language when multi-language support is enabled. By default, the language is determined by the user's browser settings at the time of sign-in, and the menu will display the term
BROWSER. Administrators may permit users to override this default behaviour and select a preferred language irrespective of the browser setting. This feature is particularly beneficial when multiple users sign in from the same computer. - Alternates Of: Names of users who have you listed as an alternate in their absence.
- Roles: Roles are assigned to a reporting authority that allows the platform to further decide who has access to what, and what actions they can perform.
- Teams: Users may be added to or removed from teams; however, a team itself cannot be deleted. Records assigned to a team generally remain under the team, although an individual user may assume ownership of the record.
