The configuration changes are not made at the system level, so apply only to the product and the user. For example, John configures the New User Story pop-up window for the product “Web-Trading”. The changes will be visible on all the user story pop-up windows for Web-Trading product, but not on any other product. Similarly, the changes made by John will not be visible to Carolyn.
