Application Administration

Overview

The Application Administration screen is used for various application setting configurations applied during implementation within the SS&E platform, therefore these settings should not be changed without consulting first with your CSM or a SS&E Technical Consultant.

  • Most of the configuration settings will not be changed by an institutional administrator, but rather by SS&E technical staff. Regardless, see below for application setting explanations.
