In this program you define the settings for calling DC1 HELP.
It is possible to configure universal default settings for all (or the majority of) users, by making use of the profile *ALL.
So long as no additional settings have been defined for a particular user profile, these defaults are retrieved from user profile *ALL. Alternatively, the values that have been configured for a group profile, to which the individual user has been added, will be used. In this case, the Group profile field must have a valid value (user profile) entered therein.
If specific entries have been made for an individual user profile, the system will use these settings and override those in the Group profile to which the user belongs, as well as those in the *ALL profile. If certain fields have not been completed for an individual user, the system will first retrieve values for these from the group profile (if these too have been completed), and thereafter the system-defined profile *ALL.
When maintaining the help settings for an individual user profile or group profile, complete the fields with *DFT if the value is to be retrieved from the *ALL profile.
Note: The value *DFT should never be used for user *ALL.
Function keys

- User profile
- This field displays the name of the user profile you are maintaining. If you accessed this panel from the initial User profile table maintenance panel the user profile will be *ALL. This is the default user and holds the ultimate settings for the HELP functions in DC1 for all users. Unless specific values have been entered for individual users, the configuration for this profile will be true for all users.
If you accessed this panel from the User profile table maintenance detail panel while maintaining an individual user profile, the name of that profile will be displayed.
