Module 17 · All users (own profile) · Administrator can edit others

Resume: §4 Account tab · §5–6 System Access · §7 Password
Open Profile:
Your profile: Sidebar → Profile Settings (or User Management → My Profile) → /profile
Another user (admin): User Management → row Profile/users/{id}/profile

1. Purpose

The Profile page maintains account details and (for administrators) controls which departments a user can see and what document actions they may perform.

2. How to open Profile

2.1 Your own profile

MethodPath
SidebarProfile Settings (bottom of menu)
User ManagementMy Profile (green button, top right)
Top barUser dropdown → profile link (if configured)
URL/profile

2.2 Another user’s profile (Administrator only)

  1. Open User Management.
  2. Locate the user in the table.
  3. Click Profile (green) on that row — not the quick Edit modal.
Use Profile for photo, departments, and CRUD. Quick Edit is for basic fields and password reset only.

3. Tab layout

All settings appear in one white card below the page title Profile. Tabs are grouped into two areas:

Group labelTabContents
ACCOUNTProfile InfoPhoto, name, username, role; password and delete account (own profile only)
SYSTEM ACCESSRead / ViewView-all-departments toggle and department checkbox list
Create, Update, DeletePer-department Create / Update / Delete checkboxes

Click a tab to switch sections. The active tab is highlighted (white pill inside the group). Click Save Profile or Save in the relevant section to apply changes.

When an administrator edits another user’s profile, the Update Password and Delete Account sections are hidden — only the target user can change their own password or delete their own account.

4. Account — Profile Info tab

Open the ACCOUNT group → Profile Info.
