Administrator Access to User Profiles

 

Introduction

You can set up your user information on the My Profile page—adding a photo as well as contact information and custom text that describes your experience, your role, or other information related to you. Your name and email address are automatically drawn from the system, but other contact information and details can be edited as desired, and will be used across the system, such as on the Service Team page your firm sets up for clients.

On this page, you can also complete the following actions:

Manage Your Profile Photo

Your profile can include a photo that is used across the site, including in the menu bar.

It may also be used on a Service Team page for your client portals, depending on settings for that page.

For information about how to manage your user photo, see Add, Change, or Remove Your User Profile Photo.

Add and Edit Profile Information

You or your administrator can update your contact information as well as other profile details that display across the site. The client portal Service Team page uses this information to fill the fields that are chosen for that page. For details about where this information appears and how it relates to client views, see Where User Profile Information Appears.
