System Settings

The System Settings view lets a system administrator or system user with Modify System Settings permission view all current FDM system settings. Some of the settings shown in the System Settings content pane are specified during installation and can be viewed but not modified. Of the editable settings, many are configured during or immediately after installation and you should not normally modify them thereafter.

The Acceptance settings enable system users to configure FDM’s meter/endpoint installation acceptance capabilities. Use them to set up your meter/endpoint installation projects’ acceptance criteria.

The SMTP server settings configure FDM to send selected notifications to FDM server users and interested non-users through your network’s existing mail server. These settings are normally configured during the server client installation procedure, but they can be modified here if necessary.

The Install Orders Exception Quantity Threshold setting enables you to configure FDM to generate notifications when work orders with exceptions exceed an acceptable number.
