EFB
Security
Admins can here select the security elements that apply to the Web Manuals Reader App. The security options include:
- Selecting which version of the app is available to users (iOS Web Manuals App or New iOS Web Manuals Reader App). Both can be used simultaneously;
- Defining the exact minutes of active sessions and therefore, no credentials are requested during that time;
- Disabling offline login for the SSO;
- Disabling the login and/or logout options when the device is offline;
- Deactivating the 'Save login' function (for the new app version);
- Defining what the App recognizes as online, WiFi only or not (for the new app version).
Role Configuration
Allows you to select the categories that contain operationally critical documents and should therefore be downloaded automatically on the EFB as soon as users log in. Note that it is possible to configure this function by Role so that different operationally critical documents are downloaded automatically for different roles. You can configure by Role by clicking on Add and selecting the role from the drop-down list.
Below is a description of this view's settings.
| Allow 'open in' for PDF Documents | Allows the user to open PDF Documents in a different app. Note that this function is only available on iOS devices. |
| Allow users to wipe device data | Allows the user to remove all the documents downloaded on their device. |
| Enable Delete Document option | If enabled, allows users to delete a document downloaded on their devices. |
| Include sub-categories for operationally critical categories | If selected, the documents in the sub-categories of the chosen operationally critical categories will also be downloaded autoamtically upon login. |
| Download File Document search index | If set to Yes, the File Document search index will be downloaded by default. If set to User choice, it will be up to the user. If set to No, the File Document search index will never be downloaded to the device. |
| Automatically start downloading Operationally Critical Documents | If set to Yes, all documents in the operationally critical categories will be downloaded automatically upon login. If set to No, all documents will require the user to tap Download in order to be downloaded. |
| Operationally Critical Categories | The chosen categories from the drop down list will be marked as operationally critical, which will allow the documents inside them to be downloaded automatically upon the user's login. |
Note: Readers can only have one EFB role.
