Tenant Configuration
Tenant Configuration
Tenant Configuration is the single screen that defines who your company is inside CifraHQ — your name, address, base currency, fiscal year, language, and time zone. Get these settings right at the start and every report header, document footer, and posting period will reflect your business accurately.
Where to find it
Go to Setup > System > Tenant.
Tenant Configuration, where you set the company identity, currency, locale and defaults.
Field reference
General
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Company Name | Displayed in report headers and document footers. Read-only after creation — contact support to change. |
| Alias | Your subdomain (e.g., acme in acme.CifraHQ.cloud). Read-only — set at tenant creation. |
| Phone | Company phone number printed on external documents. |
| Tax ID | Your company's tax identification number, included on Invoices and compliance documents. |
| Base Currency | The currency all GL balances are reported in. Affects every financial report in the system. |
| Fiscal Year Start | The first day of your Accounting year. Determines posting period boundaries. Use Reset to clear and re-enter if needed. |
| Language | Default UI and document language for your tenant. Individual Users can override this in their own profile. |
| Time Zone | Used to timestamp every transaction. Set this correctly before going live to avoid audit discrepancies. |
| Localization | Controls date, number, and currency formatting — for example, whether dates display as MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY. |
Address
Your registered company address, printed on Invoices, Purchase Orders, and other external documents sent to Customers and suppliers.
Welcome Message
A custom message displayed on the CifraHQ login screen for your tenant — useful for onboarding instructions or company announcements.
P4 Warehouse Integration
If you use P4 Warehouse (P4W), enter the P4W URL here to enable the warehouse integration. The P4W Bound flag confirms whether the integration link is currently active.
Changing the base currency
Click Change... next to Base Currency and confirm. Changing the base currency after transactions have been posted requires revaluing all balances — do this only at initial Setup or the very start of a new fiscal year.
Tips
- Company Name and Alias are fixed at tenant creation and cannot be changed from this screen. Contact CifraHQ support if a legal name change is required.
- Language and localization settings here are tenant-wide defaults. Individual Users can set their own preference in their user profile to override them.
