NOTE: The value in the Tenant Editable column indicates whether or not the system setting can be edited by a user.

  • No — The system setting can only be edited by a Gotransverse representative. Contact Gotransverse Technical Support before editing the system setting to ensure the change will not cause issues within the tenant.
