System Setting Parameters

There are system settings that allow you to customize the gross return calculation. Each setting has a default value that can be altered during implementation to customize the manner in which the gross return is calculated.

To change a system setting:

1. Edit the numeric value for the Sys Item you want to change.
   A dialog box appears for that variable.
2. Change the value displayed in the Value cell.
3. Click Save.
   Note: It is strongly recommended that these settings NOT be changed once you are in production. Changing any of these settings alters the manner by which the return is calculated.
