Explanation

Use this activity to configure your user settings. The following user settings can be configured.

Local check-out path for electronic documents. A value is required to check out a document locally.
Determine if a local file is deleted from disk after it is initially checked in.

Show whether the Aurena Agent is available or not

Aurena Agent should be installed.

If the Local Check-out Path field does not have a value, the first time you check out a document the system will create a folder named IFS under the user's default documents folder in Windows, and set that folder as the value for Local Check-out Path. The user can change the value at any time.
User settings are restricted to a user name and the computer on which they are configured. If you move to another computer, even though you log in with your usual user name, you may be working with non-configured or different user settings. Reconfigure your user settings using the procedure in this activity.
If you access IFS/Document Management through a server, e.g., Citrix or Terminal Services Client, you may log on to one of many servers. The server you access may not have your user settings configuration. Reconfigure your user settings using the procedure in this activity.
You can configure the settings so that files that have been specified as read-only will be overwritten when viewing, printing or mailing other files with the same file title.
You can configure a Document Type (e.g., View Copy, Original) to open when viewing or printing a document.
