By default, this option is set to No for all existing and new tenants.
  • New User Interface - When enabled, the Assign option will be hidden in the Case Object list.

Application Settings

Starting Application
Choose the application a new user sees after logging in.
Expand Details

Date/DateTime format
Choose the way that Date and DateTime fields are displayed.
This setting applies to dates in the record history and to dates displayed in a record list.

Relative duration
(default) Display a relative duration (for example: in 5 hours", or "4 days ago").

  • The Relative duration format is used only when viewing a record.
It does not apply to search results, record lists, reports, generated documents, or exports.
  • It is used only for system fields that show due dates and activity dates.
It does not apply to custom fields defined in an application, or to other system fields.

When this option is selected, it prevents XSS attacks by allowing you to use only the HTML tags and attributes listed in the table. When this option is not selected, all the HTML tags and attributes are allowed and XSS attacks are not prevented.

Session Management

To configure the CRUD operations at the object level for a Guest user, select the checkbox for Enable Guest Access. This creates a new section called Guest Access Criteria in Object Properties.

Task Ownership Settings

When the record owner is changed, changes in the ownership of open tasks or incomplete tasks owned by the existing record owner can be assigned to the new record owner or retain it to the existing owner.
