Repository Settings

Synthesis applications include a variety of tools to help authorized users manage settings that are shared by all users and all analysis projects in the same database. The following topics describe some of these features that are applicable for all (or most) Synthesis applications. This includes:

• Notifications

• • E-mail notifications and notification groups keep users up to date on the progress made in completing assigned actions.

• Time Units

• • The Manage Units window allows you to define the "repository time units" that will be available for use in any project within the database.

• Names, Identifiers and Categories

• • The Define Default Name Formats window allows you to specify the format for the default names of newly created resources and other items.

  • The Global Identifiers window allows you to define identifiers (e.g., part number, version, supplier, etc.) that can be used to search for resources.

  • Project Categories can be used to filter the projects displayed in the Project Manager.

• Integration with XFRACAS

• • Setting up an XFRACAS Connection allows you to access XFRACAS data from a standard database. (For an enterprise database, the Synthesis and XFRACAS data will be stored in the same repository.)

For information about other repository settings that are available only in specific Synthesis applications, please consult the documentation for the application(s) where those features are used.
