Manage your profile

Your BTS profile is where you specify your settings (e.g. your password, e-mail address, and the format in which you would like to receive e-mail notifications). It also contains useful links to a number of personalized reports.

To view your BTS user profile, click your username at the top-right of the page. Your profile is divided into two areas (denoted by tabs on the left-hand side of the screen): Summary and Roadmap.

An example profile showing the Summary tab.

The Summary tab contains information about your BTS account, including contact information, preferences, and open assignments.

The Roadmap tab compiles a report per project. Select a project from the drop-down menu and you can see a quick overview of the issues you've been assigned and your progress. Click the 'View global road map' link to see an overview of all issues in the project.
