This section is for administrators of a Board platform.
To access this section, users must have a Developer license associated with their profiles and they must have the "Admin" checkbox enabled in the Platform authorization table in the Subscription Hub. See Board Subscription Hub for more information.
In this section, you can manage user roles, security profiles, the graphical theme of the Platform, monitor users and running tasks, and several other administrative options.
The System Administration section is at the Platform level, meaning that the settings in this section take effect on the Platform you are currently logged into.
To enter the System Administration section, hover over the light blue square at the top left corner of the page to bring up Board's Main Menu, then click on "System Administration". You will be taken to the homepage of the System Administration section, where you can navigate and access its various settings. The small square at the top left corner of the page will become blue, meaning that you're in the System Administration homepage.
The System Administration homepage provides common navigation elements used in the entire Board Platform, such as tiles and the Top Menu. See Board workspace for more details.
The left navigation panel allows you to browse through the various System Administration settings: hover over the System Administration icon ( ) in the left menu to open the panel.
The System Administration section offers the following subsections:
Subscription. This tile links to the Board Subscription Hub, which is a portal for administrators of Board Cloud Platforms to carry out several user management tasks on the entire Board environment.
The tiles that you can access in the Subscription hub depend on the Subscription hub authorizations of your user account.
