Description

Currency symbolThe currency symbol set here will reflect in all the places where currency is displayed within ReadiNow
Tenant themeThe general theme for the entire tenant. See Themes
Financial year start monthSet the financial year start month which affects the "FY" Analyser conditions
Disable communication

Disabling communications effectively prevents the tenant from sending out any data.   This includes: email, SMS; API Callouts: exporting of files to endpoints through FTP/SFTP. 

Disable console session timeout

When checked, the console session timeout will be disabled (i.e session timeout will not occur). 

Note: applies when logging on using standard ReadiNow credentials or any external identity providers such as OpenID Connect or SAML. 

Note: session timeout is 60 mins.

Disable API CalloutsWorkflows are not permitted to call external APIs when Disable API Callouts is checked. 
However, if communications are disabled, API callouts will also be disabled, regardless of the setting of the Disable API Callouts checkbox
Time zone

Tenant time zone setting is used in situations where there is no time context given.

For example, when a workflow is scheduled rather than being triggered manually certain workflow activities default back to the default time zone, unless a tenant time zone has been set.

The following operations use the tenant time zone:

  1. Right-click actions
  2. Calculations
  3. Workflow: API Callout activity
  4. Workflow: Export to activity
  5. Workflow: Generate Document activity
  6. Workflow: Get Records activity

Please contact support to verify the default time zone, when this setting is not selected.
