The application uses several system-wide configuration values to adjust the settings of the application. Usually, these are set through the Application Maintenance form, which provides a user-friendly interface for modifying these values. However, there may be times when you require more direct access to these system values, or if you need to set a value for an external report that interacts with the library database. The Edit System Value form provides access to all of the system-wide configuration values. To access this form, click the All Values button on the Application Maintenance form.
NOTE: Incorrect use of the system values may produce unexpected results in the application.
The Edit System Value form is actually two forms, a "parent" form (the List Maintenance Codes form) that lists all existing system values, and a "child" form that lets you add a new item or edit the properties of a single item in the list.
To modify a value through the child form, enter the case-sensitive name of the value in the System Value Name field. Then, optionally supply the actual value through the System Value Data field.
To save changes to the item, click the OK button, or use the Cancel button to abandon changes to the item.
The Technical Resource Kit document for the application includes a list of all currently defined system values.
