In this chapter, we describe the System module. This is the module where you configure the application modules and the overall application environment. The following administrative functions are defined and maintained within the System module:

  • Module configuration

  • User accounts

  • User preferences

  • EDI profiles

  • Locales

  • Multi-currency

  • System messages

  • Events

Most of the administrative functions listed above will be configured and maintained by individuals who are assigned system administrator privileges. However, individual users who have not been assigned administrator privileges can also be granted granular security at the functional level. Regardless of the privileges assigned to them, all users have the ability to set their own preferences and passwords.

Note

We recommend restricting access to sensitive administrative functions found within the System module to individuals who are designated as system administrators.
