Tenant Security Settings - Application Access

Select the appropriate settings. The default settings are enable IP Logging and enable Employee Review %.

• Enable IP Logging – An IP (Internet Protocol) address in a unique set of numbers that represent the computer connected to the system. IP logs contain recordings of IP addresses representing members who have logged on to the system.
• Enable Protect Sheet/Workbook in Excel Exports-Allows users to enable or disable the Protect Sheet mode as per their convenience.
• Enable Snapshot in Data Input Templates - Allows users to take snapshots of input templates.
• Enable Email in Data Input Templates - Allows users to send emails with input template data attached.
• Enable Snapshots in Reports - Allows users to take snapshots of reports.
• Enable Email in Reports - Allows users to send emails with reporting information attached.
• Enforce changing the account properties when the data is available - Allows account properties to be edited when data exists. For Segment Hierarchies, the system properties (i.e. Account Type, Currency Type, Credit/Debit, Normal Data Input Type, and Variance) are disabled for account members if data has already been loaded for these members and the configuration is turned off (for you, the customer). However, if the configuration is turned on, these properties are opened to edit (even when data exists for the members). It's important to reload Data Loads and rerun Consolidations to avoid data discrepancies.
• Enable Employee Review % at - Allows the configuration of Review % at the Employee/Employee Type level. If set at the Employee level, Review % may be overridden for each employee in the template.
• Enable Email on Budget Approval Workflow - Allows users to send emails during the budget approval workflow with budget information attached.
• Enable Access to Planful Support Users Until- Allows Planful Support Users to access your application to better help you facilitate necessary tasks or provide additional assistance. If you turn off (do not select this checkbox) Support Access, Planful Support Users will not have access to your application. If you disable this option during a Support User session, the Support User is allowed to continue the session, but may not log in again. Planful Support User information is not available for viewing by your users. The system keeps audit logs of all Support Users that log in to your application.
• Click the calendar button to provide a date until which Support User access is valid. By default, this option is opened and the date is set to 10 years out. You may edit this date at any time.
• Enable cross sheet reference account update in Offline Planning workbook - Allows you to indicate whether or not you want the system to automatically populate the updated reference account line data in the dependent templates without connecting to the online template. For example, if you have two templates checked out for offline input with reference mapping (one template referencing data from another), you may automatically populate the reference account line data, or not, based on performance needs.
• Check cube process status after every _ minutes - Checks the status of the reporting cubes every number of minutes selected and updates the cube icon.
