Introduction
The configuration of the preferences is used to specify which elements of the software will appear or not in the different managements, and the way they will be presented.
Accessing Preferences
|
To configure the preferences, from the software home page, click on the "Configuration" menu, then select " |
|
User Preferences
The user preferences are unique to each user or to a group of users. The changes made are therefore applied only to the current user's profile.
NOTE: If it is not possible to modify the current user's preferences, it may be because this right has not previously been activated in the system preferences, that is to be seen with the database administrator.
Shortcut Bar
The shortcut bar is visible under different software menus. The selected icons allow you to quickly open a management or a section of the software.
| |
|
A: Allows you to choose the size of the icons of the shortcut bar. |
B: Allows you to choose to display or not the text under the icons of the shortcut bar. |
|
C: Allows you to choose to display or not the task summary at the far right of the shortcut bar. |
D: Displays the task icon close to the task summary that is on the upper-right side of the software home page, in order to access the tasks and history. The box in C must be checked to activate it. |
|
E: The "Available buttons" list contains all the buttons available in the software. |
F: The "Selected buttons" list contains the buttons that are in the shortcut bar. |
|
G: The |
H: The |
Options
| |
|
A: Allows the user to choose the display language of the software interface. |
B: When a search is conducted, if the option "When the button is clicked" is selected here, you have to click the "Search" button or the "Enter" of the keyboard once the search criteria are specified. It is also possible to specify a deadline so that the software starts searching automatically after this period of time. The option "When the button is clicked" is recommended. |
|
C: Displays or not by default the search bar. |
D: Allows you to choose the moment when the web section (green section) of the home page is refreshed. For instance, the refresh will be done as soon as Logilys makes a modification, or only the next time you open the software, etc. |
|
E: Allows you to choose the display language of the web section (green section) of the home page. |
F: The "Open in Explorer" button allows you to view ProDon's temporary folder. The temporary folder is a storage space used by ProDon in mass mailing or in the issuance of reports. |
|
G: The "Empty temp folder" button allows you to delete all the elements of the temporary folder of ProDon. |
H: Allows you to minimize ProDon in the Windows notification area placed at the lower-right side of the screen. |
|
I: This button allows you to create a shortcut to ProDon in the Windows "Start" menu. |
|
Regional Options
NOTE: This tab is visible in the "User preferences" if the option has been activated in the "System preferences", see "Regional Options" letter A of the "System preferences".
