Defining installation parameters

Define new installation parameters to tailor the system to your working environment. Set up system-wide defaults to determine settings such as whether department security is on or off or the number of days before a password expires for users. Infor EAM installation sets up default values, also known as "installation codes" or "installation parameters." You can also edit existing installation parameters.

Note: Only qualified Infor EAM system administrators should create installation parameters, with specific guidance and approval from your Infor consultant. Contact your Infor consultant to create installation parameters.

To define installation parameters:

  1. Select Administration > Security > Install Parameters.
  2. Click New Record.
  3. Specify this information:
    Install Parameter
    Enter a unique code identifying the installation parameter, and then enter a description of the installation parameter in the adjacent field.
    Note: You cannot define fixed install parameters or assign new install parameters to a module.
    Value
    Enter the default value for the parameter.
  4. Click Save Record.
