6.General system configurations

General system settings of contentACCESS are available in the respective configuration groups under the System tab.

system-tab-3-1

Only a user with Manage system permissions has the right to configure system settings. The user may find here all general system settings.
The Application settings are set by default, but can be changed (not recommended). Under Security settings the administrator can find all users of contentACCESS, here he can find the default system roles and to configure new custom roles for the users, and also here he can configure new authentication providers. The list of invitations can be found here as well. Under Services it is possible to activate the license key, set up external accessibility settings, change system database connections, set default values for the clustering etc. Under Tenants the administrator may create new tenants and create databases for these tenants. The notification schedulers can be defined on the “Schedules” page, which is also accessible from here. Under Client Applications group the contentACCESS client applications are accessible. Virtual drive must be configured if File system archive is used.

If you do not use Email Archive based plugins and also do not use accessGATE Mobile, the FQDN settings (accessible under System ⇒ Services ⇒ System) are irrelevant.
