Use the Configuration menu to set the global configuration options for Salsa CRM that affect all users. Typically, the System Administrator sets the Configuration, however anyone who has Configuration permission can modify these settings. All modifications made to the Configuration settings will be applied globally and not to individual users.
To view the Configuration screen, from the main menu, select Manage and then Configuration.
The screen consists of two panels. The left panel is the Explorer. The right panel changes depending on what topic is highlighted in the Explorer.
- When the user selects Configuration from the Manage menu, Salsa CRM by default, opens to the General settings panel. From this screen, the organization name, fiscal year, password requirements, search return settings, email, and spouse designation are entered.
- The Constituents node contains two tabs, Main and Contact. The Main tab includes options to add, edit or delete a Constituent Title, Name Suffix, Race, Organization Type, Individual Type, Religion or Relations.
