User Options are choices you make to enable some background support functions that appear whenever you need them, throughout the application.

These options are set by and for the current user and will remain in place for that user during sign-on and sign-offs, until modified.

In this way each can observe preferences, without disturbing other users in the Company. However, you may need to follow Company policies regarding certain setting choices below.

On the Work Menu at the top of the screen, click the System down-arrow, and select User Options.

The User Options screen will appear, with the "generic" choices listed under Miscellaneous:
