How to adapt representation of usernames?

  • Updated

Scenario

I would like to change the arrangement of "First name Last name (Username)", or remove one of the elements from GUI.

 

Please note

This customization is only available for Grow and Individual packages with a private app stack.

More detailed information can be found on our product plans overview..

 

Example of the default display configuration (First name Last name (Username))


Solution

If your environment is hosted in our BOC Cloud, please open a support ticket via our BOC Group Help Center.

If you are operating your BOC Management Office product on premise, you can follow the instructions below:

  • Open the following file on the application server:

    <BOC product installation directory>\conf\adoxx.conf
     
# Allows to globally change how the user name will be presented in UI
# Following placeholders can be used:
# %LASTNAME%
# %FIRSTNAME%
# %LOGINNAME%
# (they will be replaced by real data at run-time)
# Default: %LASTNAME% %FIRSTNAME% (%LOGINNAME%)
ADOXX_USER_NAME_PATTERN=%FIRSTNAME% %LASTNAME% (%LOGINNAME%)

 

  • Now, under the setting ADOXX_USER_NAME_PATTERN=, adjust the configuration to match your desired arrangement.
  • The application and web server must be restarted for the changes to take effect, which can be triggered via Webclient or a Service restart.

 

Examples

Last name First name (Username):
ADOXX_USER_NAME_PATTERN=%LASTNAME% %FIRSTNAME% (%LOGINNAME%)

First name Last name:
ADOXX_USER_NAME_PATTERN=%FIRSTNAME% %LASTNAME%
