Has anyone else made a more admin-friendly User tool homepage? I just opened my 7.6.4 User tool to do work with Data Load Console, and I thought again that it would be much easier if I cleared out the Quick Links for all of the objects that are no longer functional in the User tool and added some links for the common tasks I performing as an administrator. The trick to this is that I only want this version to show when I sign in with the User tool. (And I'd like to do the opposite when I'm on the Midtier - show the 'user' links and hide the admin links.)
Here's what I've thought of so far: - Separate admin and user accounts (klogan and adm-klogan, say) - I could add the new admin task links (and they would display automatically and only for admins). I will no longer see admin links when I sign in to the Midtier with a non-admin account, but all of the regular forms will still list (as I'll need permissions to them to administrate) when I sign in to the User tool with the admin account. - Create a separate home page - This might be easier with separate accounts as well, as I could set the admin account to the new home page in User Preferences. If I did this, is there a way to change which Quick Links are displayed for a unique home page while still keeping the list dynamic? Any other ideas? I haven't worked with the Quick Links much, so there may be some obvious Entry Point functionalities I'm missing. Kelly Logan, Sr. Systems Administrator (Remedy), GMS ProQuest | 789 E.
