## 2.12. Working in a Job-Only View

If you have been assigned `Shared` or `Analyst` access, and an EKM administrator has configured a workspace to have a job-only view, only the Jobs section will be displayed when you access that workspace. This type of view is geared towards users whose sole focus is running solutions and updates, and creates a simple environment in which you can start, monitor and manage jobs.

When a workspace is configured with a job-only view:

- The Home, Data and Processes sections are not available.

- The applications panel is not available.

- The EKM repository is not accessible.

- The Welcome dialog box will not appear.

- The help is streamlined to show only the Managing Jobs chapter in the EKM User's Guide.

- The preferences available in the Settings dialog box are streamlined to show only settings that are applicable to job objects and job management.

- Fallback to a `Basic` license will not occur when attempting to sign in to the workspace if `Shared` or `Analyst` licenses are not available. See License Fallback When Licenses are Unavailable.

Note:

- Workspaces with a job-only view are not intended for users with `Basic` access. For information about different access types, see Licensing and Access.

- `Admin` users will still have access to the Administration section in a job-only view.

For information on configuring a workspace to have a job-only view, see Creating a Job-Only View in the EKM Administration Guide.
