Preferences Metadata
As part of new company, default authorizations are provided. As per the organizational requirements, administrators can change the authorization using the Preferences Metadata (pdadm0101m000) session.
For example:
If for the Category field, the permission is set to Admin, the administrator can change this to User if required.
In the Preferences Metadata (pdadm0101m000) session, you can search the specific preference and change it accordingly.
To set the actual value of the preference, there are 3 types of sessions:
- All User Preferences: This session is used by administrators to set or update the preference value for which the Permission is set to Admin.

These are preferences which have User Permission, that is, the administrator can modify preferences of any user.
- My Preferences: Using this session, a user can update the values of the preferences which has User permissions. These preferences are specific to the user.
