The System functional area is used to manage anything that applies across all installed companies. The main tasks performed include maintaining user security, enabling report access, and managing currency access. The system functional area covers all NorthScope functional areas. The purpose of the System Preference Page is to configure how these features work. From here, users can set defaults, identify which features are used, and how the enabled features perform.

| Number of days to archive integration records after | A text box to control how long (inbound and outbound) integration records that have been successfully integrated or user bypassed remain in the initial tables (ERPx_INTEG_Inbound and ERPx_INTEG_Outbound) before they are moved to their corresponding archive tables. Keeping the # days relatively low results in records being processed faster. This value defaults to 1, is required, and can be set to any value between 1 and 1,000. | ||||||||
| Number of days to purge archived integration records after | A text box to control how long (inbound and outbound) archived integration records remain before they are deleted from the database.

| Log Users Out After Minutes | A text box to set the parameter for how long an inactive user can remain logged into the system before NorthScope auto-clears them. Because NorthScope is a web application, users are not required to "log out" and many just close their web browser. When this occurs, those users are still logged in and taking up one or your concurrent user licenses. This property lets the system know when it is safe to log them out. This defaults to 60, is required, and can be set to any value >5. | ||||||||
