Application Administration uses the client's current administration
system and user to determine the system and user that will be used as the
source of the client's Central Settings, including the advanced settings.
If the client does not have a current administration system
and user, then application administration will not download any Central Settings,
including the advanced settings.
For administration systems, the following
steps outline how Application Administration obtains a user's advanced settings:
- If a user has advanced settings on the administration system, Application
Administration uses those settings. Otherwise, it continues to the next step.
- If a user belongs to a group that has advanced settings on the
administration system, Application Administration uses those settings. The
first group found with settings is used. The groups are searched by first
checking the user profile's group profile and then checking the supplemental
groups. If no group settings are found, then Application Administration continues
to the next step.
- If there are default advanced settings on the administration system,
Application Administration uses them. Otherwise, there are no advanced settings
for the user.
