File Access Manager Web Interface

The opening screen, for most users, is the data owner dashboard, which gives an overall view of the applications being monitored.

Data Owner Dashboards

The Data Owner dashboard is a collection of informational screens for business data owners. Data owners use their dashboards to answer the following questions:

  • Who accesses data?
  • Who has access to what data, and what actions can they perform on it?
  • What sensitive data types reside within these data?
  • Who are the top active users of the data?
  • What data / permissions are stale?

In addition, data owners can:

  • Define which actions will trigger a notification to the data owner
  • Receive reports based on those notifications

Interface Languages

The File Access Manager business website supports interfaces in the following languages :

  • Chinese (Simplified)
  • Chinese (Traditional)
  • Danish
  • Dutch
  • English
  • French (France)
  • French (Canadian)
  • German
  • Hebrew
  • Italian
  • Japanese
  • Portuguese (Brazil)
  • Spanish
  • Swedish

To change the interface language:

  1. Click the arrow next to the user name on the top corner of the screen and select Language.

    This will open the language selection screen (see image below). Select a language, and then click Save. The language will remain set until the next time you change the language.

Note

In case the current language is not set to a language you understand, the language selection menu is the only option under the user name menu. This menu will be positioned in the top right, or top left corner of the screen, depending on the current language direction.

On the language selection panel, the Save button is the button in light blue, the Cancel button the one in white.

Note

The Web Localization chapter of the File Access Manager Administrator Guide describes how to define additional languages.

To see more results per page (the default is 10), select the dropdown menu on the left side of the screen to choose 10, 25, 50, or 100 results per page.

Use << and >> at the bottom right of the page to from the next and previous pages.

Time and Date Format

The time and date format are taken from the browser setting, according to the language/locale.

For example, using a language setting of English (US), will result in a date and time format of:

MM/DD/YYYY H:MM (AM/PM)

This setting is used regardless of the language setting selected in the File Access Manager website.

Notifications

All users are notified of the success or failure of various operations across system tasks and screens.

The notification icon is a dark gray bell, located in the notification panel at the top right of each screen. The number displayed next to the bell represents the number of unread notifications (i.e., notifications the user has not yet clicked on).

To clear the notification counter, simply open the notification window. If there are no unread notifications, the bell icon will appear without a notification count.

Notification Panel

To view new notifications:

  1. Select the gray bell icon in the notification panel.

  2. A list of the last ten notifications displays, with the most recent notification at the top of the list.

    Note

    New notifications also display the word “New”. This no longer displays after the user clicks on the notification.

  3. Select the link (if the link displays, since not all notifications have links) in a selected notification.
    The link redirects the user to the object of the notification, for example, a report or a campaign.
