Service Settings

Overview

The Service Settings card and Service Settings menu bar let administrators manage service settings. These pages can only be accessed if the administrator has any of the following permissions on at least one MTOA supported service:

  • Create Service Preferences

  • Read Service Preferences

  • Update Service Preferences

The table below describes what an administrator can do with a given permission.

Note: An administrator with the special permission "Create and invite users in any service" in myTC Account Administration service needs to be enrolled in a given service with permissions as described above to read and manage service settings.

If a service setting is created or modified, it generally takes 5 minutes to see the change due to caching.

This page displays all service settings, if none exist then the table will be empty. Administrators can manage existing service settings and create new ones.

When a user is assigned to a specific service with some permissions for service settings in that service, those permissions are applicable to all service settings created for that service.

Add New Service settings

This option allows administrators to create new service settings and requires the Create Service Preference permission. Without this permission, the “Add New Setting“ button will not be displayed.

Allow admin to create a new email template. This action requires Create service preference permission. Otherwise, the button will not be displayed as shown below.

 

Edit Service Settings

This option allows administrators to update service settings and requires the Update Service Preference permission. If there is no permission on a given service, the Edit button will not be displayed.
