Great question, Lisa.
Here's my lame quick answer: Sort
of.
You can set it up for multiple users, but not in the
traditional way. Anytime a search is saved by an individual user, a record
is created/updated in the AR System Searches Preference form. You as an
administrator can "Copy to New" and update the 'User' field for every
user that needs to use the search. Remember that the 'User' field is the
Submitter field on this form.
I'm not sure if we put in an enhancement request or not,
but we think it would be really cool to make a search available for a
group.
For other types of searches, if the need is great enough, I
would just add a link or a button and make it available to
everyone.

That sounds cool. If one person were to create a
parameterized search on the Mid-Tier, would others be able to use it
too?

Lisa:
I obviously can't be sure, but my guess would be that most
of the macros that your users probably create are related to searching. If
that is the case the Mid-Tier 7.0 has added functionality to Save, Load, and
Run, defined, user-created, and most recent searches. You can even create
and save parameterized searches on the Mid-Tier. (LOVE
THAT)
One can also save to CSV. That is the worth the move
in my opinion.
Other neat features allow your end users to remove/add
columns to the results list and save their sort.
We are currently using Mid-Tier 7.0 Patch 1 against an ARS
6.3 server. There are some quirky errors that happen from time-to
time. In this case the added value to our user community has out-weighed
the quirky errors that I've seen.
Hope that helps,
Michelle

We mostly just have normal macros that customers
create. I hear that Mid-Tier does not have a macro tool yet. (Even
in 7.0)

The last word I heard (but it was only a word) is that there will be user tools around for the forseeable future. We also have gotten one for 7...
I guess most macros can be easily replaced by workflow or perhaps by small apps. Can you describe how your organisation currently uses macros?
Kind regards,
Michiel
