Client selection
Clients are mutually exclusive sets of objects in the database. Maintaining separate regions of data can be used, for example, to provide services to different company departments within one database installation. The client division affects business objects in the database.
Client Switching
If the current user has more than one client assigned, then it is possible to switch between these individual clients.
Selecting a client on logon
If you are logging in as a user who has more clients assigned, then the standard login dialog is followed by a client selection dialog. Select a client to work within the respective data region.
Switching between clients in runtime
To switch between clients in USU Service Management Web, go to Profile settings and click 'Clients'. The clients section expands.
The clients section lists all database clients available to the current user. Select one of the clients in the list. USU Service Management switches to the selected client. As a result only data belonging to the client will be available.
The currently selected client is displayed under the USU Service Management logo on the left of the main toolbar.
To switch between clients in USU Service Management Rich Client, use item 'Client Change' under the 'USU Service Management' main menu.
Note: Assignment of database clients to users is performed in USU Service Management Rich Client, on the Client Mapping tab of User Manager.
