Adding and Managing UI Profiles

UI profiles allow you to customize Sage 300 for specific users.

You assign users to a UI profile, and then you set up customizations for the UI profile. These customizations apply only to users assigned to the UI profile.

  • Only the Sage 300 system administrator can add and manage UI profiles.
  • There is no Save button on the UI Profiles screen. All changes made on this screen are saved automatically.

To add a UI profile:

  1. Sign on to Sage 300 as the ADMIN user.
  2. Open Administrative Services > Customization > UI Profiles.
  3. Click Create New.
  4. In the Profile ID field, enter a unique ID for the UI profile. (The profile ID can be up to 20 characters in length.)
  5. In the Profile Description field, enter a name for the UI profile.
  6. Assign users to the UI profile:

    • On the Assign Users tab, click Add Line.

      A new line appears in the table.

    • In the User ID field, enter a user's ID. The User Name field displays the user name for the user.

    Tip: To remove a user from the UI profile, select the user in the table and then click Delete Line.
