2.3 Customizing Other GroupWise WebAccess Functionality

This section discusses how to customize the look and feel of GroupWise.

2.3.1 Setting the Default Compose View

To change the view for all items:

  1. On the main WebAccess page, click Options in the upper right corner.

  2. Click the Compose tab.

  3. In the Default Compose View box, select Plain Text or HTML.

  4. Click Save, then click Close.

To change the view in one item:

  1. Open an item.

  2. Click the HTML or > Plain Text icon.

2.3.2 Changing Your Time Zone

GroupWise WebAccess automatically adjusts the time for appointments sent between people in different time zones. For example, if you are located in New York and schedule a conference call in Los Angeles for 4:00 p.m. your time, the appointment received by the Los Angeles recipients shows the conference call at 1:00 p.m. their time.

By default, GroupWise WebAccess uses the time zone established for your GroupWise post office. However, if you are using GroupWise WebAccess in a time zone other than your post office’s time zone, you should change your time zone setting.

The GroupWise WebAccess time zone setting applies only to GroupWise WebAccess. If you have access to the GroupWise Windows client, that client uses the time zone configured through the Windows operating system, not the time zone you set in GroupWise WebAccess.

  1. On the main WebAccess page, click Options in the upper right corner.

  2. Click the Time Zone tab.

  3. Select to use either your workstation’s time zone or select the time zone you want to use from the drop-down menu.

  4. Click Save, then click Close.
