User administrative profiles
Manage user administrative profiles to control system roles, matter access, and permissions. Update your own profile or, if your system role permits, update the profiles for other users.
Each user has an administrative profile, which includes settings such as the user's system role and access to matters, analytics, and reports.
note
Each user also has a user profile, which is separate from the administrative profile, and shows general information about them, such as address and phone number, and physical location.
You can view your own administrative profile. If your system role permits, you can view and update administrative profile information for other users.
- Company system administrators can update the user administrative profile for company users. Because law firms may be working with multiple clients on Tracker, company users can't edit the administrative profile of firm users. Only law firm system administrators can edit the user administrative profile of firm users.
- Firm Office Administrators can update the user administrative profile for firm users.
- Firm Office Administrators can edit administrative profiles only for users in their own office.
Most settings on the administrative profile page were defined when the user was added to the system. Other settings can be updated when necessary.
