Tap Save to apply your changes.

If you set F2 Touch to display a high number of records, your inbox may take a long time to load. To decrease the loading time, reduce the number of displayed records.

Download documents to inbox

You can choose when you want F2 Touch to download documents to your inbox.

Figure 5. Choose when to download documents

Choose between:

  • Always. Documents are downloaded whenever your device has an Internet connection.

  • Wi-Fi only. Documents are downloaded when your device has a Wi-Fi connection.

  • Never. Documents are not downloaded.

Tap Save to apply your changes.

Duration of automatic status messages

You can choose for how long F2 Touch shows automatic status messages from which you can undo an action. An automatic status message is shown e.g. when you send an email or when you change your personal settings and leave the "Settings" screen without saving your changes.

Figure 6. Choose the duration of automatic status messages

Choose between:

  • 5 seconds

  • 30 seconds

  • 2 minutes.

Tap Save to save your changes.

Actions that can be undone from automatic status messages are carried out only after the status message disappears. For example, if you have chosen to show automatic status messages for two minutes, an email is only sent two minutes after you tapped "Send" in the record window.

Show role selector at login

You can choose to show the role selector before you log in on both iOS and Android. Your choice here affects both F2 Touch and F2 Desktop.

Tick the box next to Show role selection at login.

Tap Save to apply your changes.

“On behalf of” rights

In F2 Touch you can assign “On behalf of” rights to another user by tapping New under the “On behalf of” header.

It is then possible to specify:

  • Which user the privilege is given to.

  • If the user receiving the privilege can perform all actions on behalf of you or only handle approvals (requires the F2 Approvals add-on).

  • When the “on behalf of” rights start.

  • When the “on behalf of” rights expire.

Tap Create to complete.

Tap Save to apply your changes.

Tick the box Show ‘on behalf of’ created by administrator to display any users with “On behalf of” rights created by a user with the “On behalf of administrator” privilege.

The users with “On behalf of” rights created by an administrator are hidden by default.

Select time zone

F2 Touch’s time and date are based on the device’s time zone by default. F2 Touch can be configured to also have the option of using the server’s time zone.

Figure 12. Select time zone

The selected time zone is used for deadlines and similar fields. If you are using the device’s time zone, deadlines will be shown in your local time zone, also when you are abroad. This also applies when you set a time and date in connection with e.g. deadlines or searches. If the time and date is generated on the server, it will always reflect the server’s time zone.

Tap Save to apply your changes.

The configuration is performed in cooperation with cBrain.

Send log manually

At the bottom of the “Settings” screen, it is possible to send logs manually.
