Configuring CMC Settings

You must have rights to create users or to modify the user’s settings.

You use this procedure to configure Communication Mobile Client settings that are transferred to the CMC user’s mobile device and are used by the CMC application. We recommend defining these settings via a user settings template, but you can also define them separately for each user. The settings defined in the template are marked with an asterisk (*) in the user settings view.

  1. On the System Configurator main screen:

    • To define a user settings template, choose User and Role Management > User Settings Template and search for the template that you want to configure.

    • To define a user’s settings, choose User and Role Management > Users and search for the user whose settings you want to configure.

    The search result list appears.

  2. Choose the template or user by double-clicking it.
  3. Choose CMC Settings.
  4. Configure the settings according to the following tables. If you want that the setting you have defined in the template cannot be changed on user-level, select Deny User-Level Modifications. Those settings are grayed out in the user settings view.
