Learn how to set up general preferences for all users in Oracle Fusion Cloud

As an Administrator of Fusion Applications, you would like to set General Preferences as default for all users within the company. Instead of asking users to perform these changes one by one by themselves, you can set the preferences as default according to your company requirements and all users will automatically have these preferences set on their accounts.

Your users can still set preferences for themselves using the General Preferences page. Once you set the general preferences for all users, if specific users don’t change their preferences, then the preferences that you have set for all users will apply to them.

You need to follow below action plan if you desire to set general preferences for all users.

Step 1

In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to the Set User General Preferences task.

Step 2

Fill in the details below as per company requirements.

Language
Territory
Date Format
Time Format
Number Format
Currency
Time Zone

If you only want to set the preferences for new users whose preferences haven’t been set by them yet, select the Reset preferences for new users only check box. Selecting this option excludes all users whose preferences were set at some point in time.

Step 3

Save your work.
