Access and Layout Configurations

Depending on which computer editor you access, Workflow will provide an overview of the access and layout configurations for individual computers in your system, or will allow you to configure all of the computers or a subset of computers in your system to use global startup options.

If a computer is included in a global default configuration, any settings you configured specifically for that computer are overridden by the global default settings. If you do not want a specific computer to use the default configuration, you can either exclude it during the initial default set up or you can override the default configuration.
