User Profile

Displays select information about the user stored in VPC, and if configured this way, will allow the user to update their personal data including passwords for non-LDAP users. In addition, the user can select default options for dashboard and daily reports. If configured for dashboards, and this box is checked, after log on, the user will be taken directly to the dashboard view. If the Daily Report box is checked, then the user will automatically be subscribed to it in any proposal in which the user has access and the feature is turned on. The user also has the option to only see information on Action Items in the Daily Report. Clicking on the proposals button will bring up a panel with all proposals the user has access to. Selecting a proposal will prevent information for that proposal from being displayed in all tables in the Dashboard, as well as any milestones associated with that proposal in the All Milestones view of the Calendar. Enter desired changes and click on Commit to update the server. If you change your mind after making changes but before committing, click on Reset, to return to previous data.

If configured for password management, the user can change their password, but it must meet certain requirements specified by the system admin. The requirements can include minimum length, use of numbers, lowercase characters and/or uppercase characters. The System Admin can also require that passwords can't be repeated for a specified number of times. If the new password doesn't meet the criteria configured by the System Admin, an alert message will be displayed listing all of the conditions that must be met. A user whose password is about to expire will receive an alert when logging into vpc indicating that fact. A user whose password has expired and is in the grace period will be allowed to login and will be forced to change the password before proceeding. A user whose grace period has passed will be notified to contact an administrator in VPC to have the password reset.
