A nice option is available: User configuration in Settings, making it possible to use more logdatabases/callsigns.
As Configuration ID a key is assigned, consisting of a string of numbers and characters. In the Description field one can find the callsign concerned. But in first instance one has to choose a non-significant string from a list and then the callsign is presented. In case of 1 or 2 different databases/callsigns this not a problem, but using a number of databases/callsigns it is difficult to find the appropriate configuration.
Is it possible to use a symbolic name instead of a key-string?

Looking at my User Configuration and the Configuration ID ... immediately below that I had entered in a description for that file. Seems to me that option will best answer your question as it is already in place and available for use by each OM.

Re: User configuration
Hello Nolan, tnx for the reply.
Yes, the callsign is presented below the key-string. But managing about 25 databases/profiles/callsigns it means I have to scroll through the list and trying each key for its significance to find the right profile. Perhaps this procedure can be more secure and user-friendly.

Re: User configuration
Martin is correct - as is changing a user is somewhat involved & tedious.
IMHO a user should be selected from a simple drop-down list outside of the settings menu.
