Setup > System > Configuration is the list of the company's settings, grouped by section. Every setting has a technical name, a value and a description; it is edited in line and applies immediately.
Business_DataEntry: the lists of transportation methods and currencies the contracts offer (comma separated).
Business_NamingConventions: the numbering format of contracts, proforma invoices, Customers, Exporters and Freighters (prefix, year, number of digits) and whether the code may be typed by hand (AllowManual...).
Business_Releasing: whether releasing a contract or an invoice requires an approval workflow and which one is the default.
Business_Products: default length and weight units on new Products.
Setup_Alerts: the days of each alert group, whether the daily digest is sent and to whom; see Alerts.
Setup_Notifications: whether a release notifies the approvers (ApprovalRequest) and whom (ApprovalRecipients; empty = every administrator), and whether an approval notifies the importer's contact (ImporterOnApproval) with a copy to someone (ImporterCc).
Setup_Communication_Email: how email goes out. By default it leaves through the platform's sender with nothing to configure; a company with its own mail server sets Transport to Smtp and fills in server, port, username and password. FromEmail is the address replies go to.
Setup_Communication_SMS: the account for the workflows' SMS notices.
Setup_PasswordPolicy: the password policy.
Setup_System: session expiry, maximum attachment size, record limits on queries and history, whether administrators may view reports as JSON.
Change a setting only when you know what it does. The technical names appear as-is in this guide so you can find them with the list's search box.
