Enhanced Profile User Interface Overview

Available in: Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, Developer, and Database.com Editions

User Permissions Needed
To enable the enhanced profile user interface: “Customize Application”

The enhanced profile user interface provides a streamlined experience for managing profiles. With it, you can easily navigate, search, and modify settings for a profile.

To enable the enhanced profile user interface, from Setup, click Customize | User Interface, then select Enable Enhanced Profile User Interface and click Save. Your organization can only use one profile user interface at a time.

You can't use the enhanced profile user interface if:

  • You use Microsoft® Internet Explorer® 6 or earlier to manage your profiles (unless you've installed the Google Chrome Frame™ plug-in for Internet Explorer).
  • Your organization uses category groups on guest profiles used for sites.
  • Your organization delegates partner portal administration to portal users.
