Personal account setup

User profiles are created by the admin user of the application. You can customize the various components of your user profile.

• User profile The user profile includes the login ID, password and other personal preferences of the user such as date format and color theme. You can modify these attributes and customize the application.
• Product groups

  Product groups are user-defined sets of parts used to customize the Event Management Console (EMC) alerts and the email alerts. You can assign the product groups to the EMC events and the alerts, to receive the alerts only for the parts that are part of the product group.

  Note:  Each part can be added to one product group only.
• Email alerts You can configure the alerts for the various events and customize the alerts using the Alert Configuration page. These alerts help you to monitor the status of an event without accessing the application. The alerts are sent to the email address specified on the User Profile page. You can assign product group to the alerts, to receive the email notifications related to the parts that belong to the product group.
• EMC Display The Event Management Console (EMC) provides a quick view of your account status, including shipment, release, and purchase order summaries, the process exceptions and other statistics. You can configure the EMC to view the events as standard or priority items and the order in which the event categories are displayed. The events available are based upon the role assigned to the user profile. You can assign the product group to the events. Consequently, the events related to the parts included in the product group are displayed on the Event Management Console.
