User Information:

Use this section to enter information about the user.

Can Access File Server

This affects attachments only. Choose Yes if this user will use Contract Management while connected to your company's network. This allows them to locate and attach files that exist on the network, not just the local drive. The client machines MUST have the same drive letter mappings as the Contract Management web server machine for this to work properly, otherwise the attachments will not be found. Choose No for users who will use Contract Management without being connected to the company's network. In this case, files will be uploaded from the client machine to the Contract Management web server.

Note: If you are not sure, or if the user will sometimes be connected, choose Yes. The user can then set the option in the User Settings Dialog Box for each session.
