Apply a Default Locality to all Users without one

Users can set their own locality in their system preferences (My Settings Menu path separator My Preferences). However, some users may forget to do this, or may decide to use the default locality set for them by the system administrator.

Without any of these settings, the default locality for the system will apply. This default locality will apply to all users who have not selected their own locality, no matter where they are located geographically.

If your organization spans the globe or even a large land mass with various time zones, choose a Default Location that either reflects the head office location, or where most of the users work.

To apply a default locality to users who haven't selected one

  1. In the web application, select Admin Menu path separator Localities Menu path separator Default Locality from the menu.
