Enabling user options

user option is a way to enable application features for a user, user type, or for the system. You can enable and disable user options in the User Options tab on the Personalization page in NexJ Admin Console.

Features are enabled or disabled by default, even though they may not appear in the Options list in User Options. If necessary, add user options to the list to change enablement settings.

To enable or disable a user option:

  1. Navigate to the User Options tab on the Personalization page and click the Select button 
     at the top of the list. T
    he Select Option dialog opens.
  2. You can use the search bar to filter the list of user options using the * character as a wildcard. For example, searching for *cam* will retrieve the Enable Campaigns user option. Add the desired options to the list on the right. By default, the Enabled checkboxes are selected.
  3. Select or clear the checkbox for each user option to enable or disable the option.
  4. Click OK.

The options you selected now appear in the options list. You can enable and disable these options directly from the list by clicking the Enabled checkbox.

If NexJ CRM is currently running, you will have to restart it for the changes to take effect.
