Specifying profile attributes at different levels
You can specify profile attribute values at different levels in Optiva.
| Level | Form > Tab | Description |
|---|---|---|
| System (default) | Profile > Detail | Using the Profile form, you can specify profile attribute values that apply to everyone who is logged into any Optiva lab. |
| Lab | Lab > Profile | Using the
@DFLT Lab, you can specify profile attribute
values for all labs.
Using the
Lab form, you can also specify the profile
attributes for one lab, such as the
|
| User | User > Profiles | In the Profiles tab of the User form, you can specify the profile attribute values that are unique for the user. |
What happens when you have profile attributes defined for a specific user, a specific lab, and the entire system (default)? A hierarchy is used to determine which profile attribute value to enforce for the user.
The profile attribute values that are defined at the user level take the highest precedence. These profile attribute values override the values that are defined at the Lab level and the system (default) level.
The attribute values that are defined at the Lab level override the values that are defined at the system (default) level.
