Job Management Partner 1/Software Distribution Administrator's Guide Volume 1
You use this job to change the components of a window (such as buttons, search conditions, and editable items) for a particular user role.
For example, you can hide the Update button in the Device Details dialog box or make items uneditable so that users with the user role cannot change the device information. You can also change the display order of search conditions and editable items.
Customize Job Windows enables you to easily customize job settings windows as appropriate for different user roles. Note that the items being managed are set based on the settings in the Customize Managed Items window.
To change windows according to a user role, start from the Customize Job Windows window, which is displayed by clicking the Customize Job Windows job menu. The following figure shows the Customize Job Windows window.
