About Portal rules

Your system contains a few standard portal rules. Use the Rules by Type Explorer to see a complete list of the standard and custom rules available to you.

You cannot alter the standard portal rules. To tailor the User, Manager, WorkManager or WorkUser portal, copy the standard rule into an application RuleSet and alter your copy. The Developer portal rule is final.
