Assigning startup options

You can configure startup options that impact how Axiom Capital Planning displays when a user logs in. These options are listed at the bottom of the Startup tab of the Security Management dialog, underneath the assigned startup files. You can set these startup options at the user level or at the role level.

Currently there is only one startup option that can be set:

• Show Formula Bar At Start

If this option is enabled, then the formula bar automatically shows when a user logs into the Axiom Capital Planning Excel Client or the Windows Client. If this option is disabled, then the formula bar is hidden.

Users can still toggle the formula bar shown or hidden using the Formula Bar check box on the Axiom ribbon tab. This startup option simply determines the initial state of the formula bar when the user logs in; it does not prevent the user from changing that state later.

By default, all users are set to show the formula bar at start, via the Everyone role. If you want to change this behavior, you have several options:

• You can override the behavior for specific users by clicking the Override check box and then clearing the check box for Show Formula Bar At Start. This means that the formula bar will be hidden at start for this user.

• You can clear the Show Formula Bar At Start check box for the Everyone role, and then set the option as desired for specific users and roles.

NOTE: It is not possible to leave the option enabled for the Everyone role and then override it by role. If you want some roles to show the formula bar and others to hide it, then you must disable the option on the Everyone role and then enable or disable it as appropriate for your other roles.

This setting is always enabled for admin users and cannot be disabled. However, for admin users only, Axiom Capital Planning will remember the last state of the formula bar and apply that on startup, disregarding this setting.
