Main Settings (Lockbox)

Define this lockbox by filling in this page:

  1. In the Name box, type a name for the lockbox. Users will see this name in a list of their external accounts when they click My Account | Password Manager. The name should clearly identify the external system for which users will enter their login credentials.

  2. In the Description text box, type a description for this lockbox. This description displays in the Administrative Object Directory to help other administrators understand what this object is.

  3. Next to Primary Language, you see one of two things:

  1. If you want to add names and descriptions for languages other than the primary language, select Supports Localized Names. A new section displays, allowing you to add names and descriptions for additional languages.

    Each object can have an alternate name and description for each language that is supported in the portal. For example, if you have an object called "Engineering," then you might have the French translation, Ingénierie, as the alternate name for that object. So when users log in using the French user interface, they see the object names and descriptions associated with French.

  2. If you selected Supports Localized Names, you can add names and descriptions to display to users who have chosen a language for the portal display other than the primary language you selected.

      1. Click New Localized Name.
      2. In the Name and Description dialog box:
        1. In the Name box, type the localized name for this lockbox.
        2. In the Language drop-down list, choose the language for which you are adding a name and description.
        3. In the Description box, type the localized description for this lockbox.
        4. When you are done, click Finish.

    Note: If this object has already been localized into all supported languages, you cannot add more localized names and descriptions (New Localized Name is not displayed).

      1. Click the entry you want to change.
      2. In the Name and Description dialog box:
        1. Edit the Language, Name, and Description as necessary.
        2. When you are done, click Finish.

  3. Under Lockbox Properties, enter names for the username and password properties for this lockbox. These properties will be created when you save the lockbox. After you have saved the lockbox, these properties appear as links. Click the links to edit the properties.

    End users will see these names in the Password Manager when entering their login credentials for the external system corresponding to this lockbox.

  4. Click Finish to save the lockbox.

  5. When done, click Finish to close the Credential Vault Manager.


  1. Click Administration.
  2. In the Select Utility drop-down list, click Credential Vault Manager.
  3. Open the Lockbox Editor:
