13.2 Customizing Organization Configuration Settings

Roles that Can Perform This Task: Cloud Administrator, Organization Manager

The Organization Configuration settings determine if organization members can see all workload costs and settings when creating and managing business services.

To customize the settings:

  1. On the main navigation bar, click Organizations.

  2. On the Organizations tab, select the target organization, then click Edit.

  3. In the upper-right corner of the dialog box, click the icon to display the Organization Configuration dialog box.

  4. Configure the following settings:

    Organization Costs: Select whether the organization’s business service costs are hidden from or shown to the organization’s members. This applies to all Organization members regardless of their assigned roles.

    You can override this setting on a business group. For example, if you show business service costs for the organization, you can hide costs for a specific business groups. Organization users can see the costs associated with all of the organization’s business services with the exception of business services created by the one business group.

    In some cases, you might want to hide costs from some users but not from others. To achieve this, you can hide the costs at the organization or business group level, but then enable the Always show costs option on the individual user accounts.

    Workload Dialog: A workload contains Windows Settings, Windows Licensing, Linux Settings, and Networks tabs that must be configured when requesting a business service. These tabs can be hidden, in which case a Build Administrator or Cloud Administrator must provide the information when completing the pre-build configuration tasks for the business service.

    The organization inherits the Workload Dialog settings configured at the system level. If you want to override the system settings to apply different settings for the organization, select Override System Setting, then enable or disable the tabs as desired.

    To revert the settings to the system settings, deselect Override System Setting.

  5. Click OK.
