Parametrization - System
The "System" parametrization is used to change the characteristics about the system authentication, inform the system URL, the several directories (GED, Log, Temporaries), define the home screen, validate buttons permission (save, delete and search), activate system log (audit), define the language preference and others.
Procedure
- Access the functionality through the main menu Parametrization > System;
- Define the value of the parameters (attributes);
- Click on "Save";
- The list below presents the "System" parameters and the purpose of each one of them:
# | Name | Possible Values | Purpose | Additional Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
0 | SOURCE - Information Source Configuration (for data federation) - (Eg: 0) | Information Source Configuration (for data federation). | If you do not enter the parameter value, you cannot export the Configuration Management Database (CMDB) from the "Configuration Item Management" screen. |  |
15 | Internal GED (Eg: Y or N) | Y or N | Inform if the Electronic Document Management used is internal. Note: Currently the only way to use electronic document management is internal. By setting 'Y' to the Internal one, the system will create the folder defined by parameter 18 and will create a subfolder with the company ID and another subfolder named 'A'. The electronic document management files will be written to these folders. | If the 'N' value for the Internal GED is informed, the files will not be saved correctly, will not be saved in the correct location, and will not be encrypted. |
16 | Internal GED in Database (Eg: Y or N) | Y or N | Inform if the Electronic Document Management (GED) used is internal to the Database. | Not applicable |

18 | GED Directory (Eg: Windows - C:/gedCitsmart) | E.g.: Windows - C:/gedCitsmart | Define the directory for manipulation of the Electronic Document Management (GED) files. | If you do not enter the GED directory, electronic document management will not work because it uses the directory for file encryption. |
