Review and set public access profiles and parameters

To review and set public access profiles and parameters:

1. In the Administration Explorer tree view, expand the organization for which you want to set profiles or parameters.
2. Select Parameters or Profiles in the list under the expanded folder. The Parameters or Profiles tabs are displayed in the details view.
3. Select the appropriate tab:
   • If you selected Parameters, click the PAC tab.

Note:
Search Agent Parameters is the only organization PAC parameter. It controls the ability to set up and save automatic searches in the PAC. See Setting Up Saved Searches in the PAC.

• If you selected Profiles, click the PAC tab for general public access profiles; the PowerPAC tab for profiles specifically for Polaris PowerPAC; the Children’s PAC tab for profiles specifically for Polaris PowerPAC Children’s Edition; or the Mobile PAC tab for profiles specifically for Polaris Mobile PAC.

The selected tabbed page appears.

4. Double-click the parameter or profile you want to set. The option value is highlighted for editing, or a dialog box appears.

To get a setting from the next higher organizational level, right-click the parameter or profile and select Inherit higher level values. To give a setting to multiple lower organizations, right-click the parameter or profile and select Transmit values to lower levels. Not all settings can be inherited or transmitted.
