CONFIGURING
Using default settings when registering users

When you use default settings, the user registration process is fast and easy. The settings you define as Registration preferences remain from session to session. All other default settings return to Notes® defaults each time you begin a new registration session.

The default settings can originate from a variety of sources:

  • Notes includes a set of default settings.
  • You can define default settings in the registration preferences in the Administration Preferences dialog box. Define these settings before registering users. The registration preferences do not offer all the default settings, only some of the more basic ones, such as designating the Registration server.
  • You can define default settings through the user registration interface using either of two methods: one method uses settings for a user previously added to the user registration queue, and the other method uses settings defined on the Register Person - New Entry dialog box.

    For example, if you have already added users to the user registration queue, the non-user-specific settings that were applied to the last user, now serve as defaults for the next user. Similarly, you can define settings on the Register Person - New Entry dialog box. If you import or migrate users while in this mode, users inherit settings you defined.


This table lists all the default user registration settings that Notes provides. User registration fields that do not appear in this table do not have default values. The values in this table appear only under these conditions:
  • Previous values have not been set in Registration preferences
  • Previous values have not been set in the Register Person dialog box
