Exploring the Administration View

The Administration view displays Transaction Manager users and related user information. The Administration view gives administrators the ability to control access to the transaction data, track the status of each user, restore data, archive transactions, and configure Scheduler if they have purchased this add-on. This view is only available for users who are assigned the Administrator role.

The Administration navigation menu contains four options: User Administration, Scheduler, System Configuration, and Restore Archives. Selecting any of the options displays related information in the active view.

The following table describes each of these Administration menu options.
