Only some of the account segments show.

Context

  1. In User Attributes, click Search and enter user criteria or use Browse to select a user.
  2. Click on the Attributes tab.
  3. Select the line that shows Account entry method (required) under the Attributes column.
  4. Underneath the Attributes list, click Update
  5. Change the O to L for long account.
  6. Accept twice.
