User Properties Dialog > Settings Tab
The user will only see the settings that the administrator has allowed them to see.
All possible user settings, arranged in categories, are documented here. Each category can be expanded to display its settings. If an icon appears to the left of a setting, that generally means the setting can be expanded to display suboptions.

In the dialog that opens, select an option from the list. If you select Custom value, then also specify a time limit in the hours field. When finished, click OK. |
Use access control | When on, a user's access privileges to folders, work areas, and documents are based on the object’s current access control settings. The access control can be in the form of Workflow, Folder or Document Security. When off, access control is not used and the user has full access privileges to all folders and documents in the datasource. |
Can access Deleted Items folder | If on, the user can see and use the Deleted Items folder, if the administrator has made the Deleted Items folder available in the datasource. |
Apply Login Control Rules | Used with the datasource settings for User Login Controls. When the user login control datasource settings are set, you can turn this setting on for each user that you want the datasource settings to apply to. |
Enable as Service Account | Turn this setting on if you want to designate a particular account as a service account. A service account is one that is intended only to be used by a service, such as Automated File Processing (full text indexing, thumbnail image extraction, file properties extraction), and therefore does not need a license. |
