Creating and Editing Administrative Objects

The same process can be used to create or edit any administrative object in the portal.

To create an administrative object:

1. Click Administration.
2. Open an administrative folder.
3. In the Create Object drop-down list, click the type of object you want to create.
4. Complete the editor.
5. To save your changes, click Finish.
6. In the Save Object dialog box:
1. Choose a location in which to save the object.
2. Name the object.
3. Depending on the type of object, you might also be able to:
• Type a description for the object.
• Specify whether the object can be migrated.
• Click the Security tab, and specify what users and groups can access this object.
4. When you are finished, click Save.
7. If your object is created successfully, you have the opportunity to create other associated objects. For example, you might need to create a job to run the content crawler you created, or you might need to create a portlet based on the Web service you created. To create an associated object, click the appropriate link on the Success page.

To edit an existing administrative object:

1. Click Administration.
2. Navigate to the object you want to edit.
3. Click the object name.
   Note: To edit a community, after opening the community folder, click .
4. Edit the values in the editor.
5. To save your changes, click Finish. To return to the administration page without saving your changes, click Cancel.

• To create or edit a default profile, see Edit Default Profile.
