Mobile Address Book Application Preferences
You can manage the application preferences associated with the mobile address book application here:
Service Configuration
At this level, you can view and change default preferences for mobile applications as well as control which preferences users can edit themselves.
Within Service Configuration, application preferences are stored using two types of Access Manager attributes:
- Global These attributes establish global default preferences and control the ability of users to edit them.
- Dynamic These attributes establish the default pattern of information that is eventually stored at the user level.
Table 1, Service Configuration Attributes, explains the preferences available in the address book pane on the right. The table contains two columns. The first column provides the preference’s name, and the second column describes the preference.
