Diagnostics user preferences options in the web client
Diagnostics settings control how the system works when you are trying to diagnose problems and bugs while designing and modifying forms. You need these only if you are actively involved in creating and modifying forms in the system.
Caution:
Configure diagnostics only if Infor Support has
instructed you to do so, or if you are debugging a form under development. Use these settings
to specify what information is recorded in the session log.
The Diagnostics user preferences options in the web client are organized into multiple tabs.
