Configuration mode

The Self Service Portal has a configuration (config) mode, similar to the desktop application. Using config mode, system administrators can configure the functionality that is shown or hidden on the portal pages based on a user's security group. System administrators can also localize the information that is shown on these pages.

To access configuration mode, click or tap the Settings button at the bottom of the application menu. Configuration mode is controlled by the permissions of the CONFIG MODE TOC maintenance form. By default, access is only granted to the SYSTEM ADMINS security group, but this can be modified.

Note: Hybrid pages do not support config mode. In general, they share the same configuration as the equivalent pages in mobility and must be configured in the Admin Portal (desktop application).
