Once the emdash™ components are installed in your environment we need to set up some initial configuration and model an environment.
emdash™ Admin Users
The first task is to nominate and configure those users that will be granted Admin rights within emdash™. This will allow those users to have access to extra features and functions within emdash™ itself, including the Reference Data Management screens.
The best way to do this is to create a new AD Group called ‘emdashAdmins’ and add the AD accounts for the users to get elevated rights to this group.
We will then update the emdash™ Authorization Store to include this AD Group.
Note that the number of users added to this group are included your emdash™ User License.
Admin users will have access to menu items as follows:
Figure 5.1 - emdash™ Portal
System Wide Settings
System Wide Settings get created as part of the initial installation scripts. However, they need to be customised to each Customer’s environment.
System Wide Settings can be updated within the emdash™ website, accessed by Reference Data Mgr – System Wide Settings:
Figure 5.2 - emdash™ System Wide Settings
The values in these system wide settings can influence the successful operation of the emdash™ functionality. As such we recommend that they are set up in conjunction with us, documented, and then left untouched.
Summary
emdash™ is now installed and the base configuration is complete.
We now need to create some environments and add applications to them. This is described in detail in the guide related to the application you want to manage – for example ‘Endur/Findur in emdash™’.
