Configure a Preference

Review Preference documentation prior to starting this task. Rules and job allocation passes use Preferences in Preference Profiles to find matching jobs.

This task requires the authority permission Setup: Preferences.

To edit or create a Preference in the Preferences section of the Setup area:

  1. Click Add.
  2. Name the preference set.
  3. This next step is either optional or required...
    • Optional - If Institution Focus is disabled, supplying an institution is optional.
    • Required - If Institution Focus is enabled, the application assumes the focused institution, but if <none> is set the application requires an institution to be selected.
  4. Select the permission control in User Permissions for the employee when this preference set is selected.
  5. Depending on the user permission selected, the panel on the right will redraw and show either Filters or Options. Configure as desired. We recommend you add one filter at a time and test each one with a test user as you build the entire criteria.
  6. Click Save.

Attach the Preference to the Preference Profile then attach the Preference Profile to the person.
