Clearing a User’s User Context Settings

User context settings are saved in the database. A user’s user context settings include, for example, filters defined in Alfabet views or search parameters used for the most recent search. When a user returns to a Alfabet view or the search functionality in following user sessions, such filter definitions or search parameters have been saved and are automatically displayed in the respective field.

User context settings can be cleared for individual users in the User Management functionality in the Alfabet Administrator. After the user context settings have been cleared, relevant filters in views or fields in the search functionalities will be empty and new user context settings can be saved.

To clear a user’s user context settings:

  1. In the table, click the user for whom you want to clear the context settings.

    You can select several objects in the table at the same time by holding down the CTRL key while selecting.

  2. In the toolbar, click Action > Clear User Context Settings.
  3. Confirm the warning. The user context settings of the selected user are cleared.
