Millennium Display Options

System Display Options are institutional customizations of how Millennium displays to the users. Some System Options determine the text that is displayed on buttons and labels. Others pertain to how sensitive information, such as bank account numbers, are displayed to the users. The options that are set here apply to all of the users at your site.

The following topics describe the Millennium System Display Options:

Results Displays

Several tasks that users perform within Millennium (Profiles Searches, for example) result in displaying a list of constituents. The system shows certain pieces of information about each listed constituent, such as ID number, name and contact information, by default. Your site can customize the each constituent list display for all of your users by using Results and Lists Display forms. Your site can decide what pieces of constituent information to display, and the order in which to display them.

Display Masks

Display masks determine how a field will display to the Millennium user.

The System-Defined Default display masks for the Social Security Number, Drivers License Number, and Bank Account Number fields are determined here. These are the display masks that will be used for all users who belong to an Millennium User Group that is assigned to the Default Mask display mask option.

See the Group Maintenance topic for how to assign display masks to Millennium User Groups.

Note: The fields on Data Maintenance forms will remain unmasked no matter what display mask a User Group is assigned to.

The System-Defined Display Masks default to the following for each field:

Display Mask

Default

Social Security

#####9999

Drivers License ###############9999

Bank Account

################9999

To set the system's default Display Masks:

  1. Access the Display Options page by using Millennium Explorer, Tools > Display Design > Display Options.
  2. Click the Maintenance button located below and to the left of the Display Options header.
  3. In each of the Social Security Display Mask, Drivers License Display Mask, or Bank Account Display Mask boxes, enter the number 9 for each of the digits that you want to display as digits, and enter a pound sign # for each of the digits that you want to mask.
  4. Click OK.

Search Results Display

When the system returns the results of a Profiles Search, Millennium will display, for each constituent who matches the Search criteria:

Your site can add additional fields to, remove fields from and change the order of the display by using the Define Search Results form.

ADE Search Results Display

Similarly, when the Advanced Data Examiner (ADE) is used to process new constituents, it can be set up to match potential new constituents to existing constituents by using the ADE Matching Levels as the Search criteria. For each constituent who matches, Millennium will display:

If your site wants different information to display, then the ADE Search Results Display form can be used to modify this system default display.

My Staff List Display

A Director can retrieve a list of his or her Staff by using the Favorites > Prospects > My Staff Millennium Explorer item. A Director's Assistant or Researcher can impersonate the Director, and retrieve the Director's Staff list as well. For each Staff member that is listed, the system will show:

If desired, the information that displays for the My Staff Favorites listing can be changed by using the My Staff Display form. In particular, you may want to add the count of each Manager's Prospects to the display.

My Prospects List Display

A Prospect Manager can view a list of his or her own Prospects from the Favorites > Prospects > My Prospects Millennium Explorer item. A Prospect Manager's Assistant or Researcher can view a list of the Managers' Prospects as well by using the Favorites > Prospects > My Staff Millennium Explorer item and then click on the name of a Prospect Manager.

When the Prospect List displays, it will show for each prospect:

The My Prospects Display form can be used to change the information that users will see when accessing their My Prospects Favorites list.

About the Results Display Forms

The Results Display forms are accessed from the Display Options page. They share the same components and have similar functionality.

The form contains two lists. Available Columns and Saved Columns.

The Saved Columns list will list the fields that will be shown on the constituent list displays, and the order in which they will be shown. Items that are added into the Saved Columns list will be added to the bottom of the list. The form Move Up and Move down buttons can be used to move them into the order that you desire.

There are eight buttons on each form.
