The Main department type defines fields of the user profile available in Access Manager for view and edit by default.

Note.

Fields visibility can also be restricted by Type of department and/or Operators' permissions in AM objects – see Configuring a type of department in the Access Manager and Configuring availability of fields depending on operator rights in the Access Manager.

Note.

Fields visibility configured in the Main type of department is applied if Main type is selected for the department while editing in the Access Manager (see Editing a department).

Configure the Main department type as follows:

  1. Go to the Access manager object settings panel. The object is created under the Display object on the Interfaces tab of the System settings dialog box.
  2. Go to the Standard fields or Additional fields tab (1).

  3. Available fields are shown in the Name of field column (2).

    Note.

    See Setting user parameters for details on the fields.

  4. Set visibility and editability of each field as necessary. For that:

    1. Select one of the following values in the (3) column:

      ValueDescription
      HiddenThe field is not displayed in the list while editing or viewing user
      Read onlyThe field is displayed in the list while editing or viewing user but is not editable
      EditThe field is displayed in the list while editing or viewing user band is editable.
      Note. The Card issued by and Access level assigned by fields are always not editable as so as these fields are automatically filled with the name of the Operator assigning/changing card or access level.

    2. Enter name of the group to display the field in the list of user's parameters in the Access Manager interface window in the Category column (4). Category name is arbitrary. If it is not specified, the parameter is shown in Other group.

      Note.

      Categories are sorted alphabetically. Use number prefixes in the name to set strict order of sorting.

  5. Click Apply to save settings (5).

Configuring the Main department type is completed.
