Global Settings

The Global Settings screen contains the password and license information used when starting an installation. Users can also test this information without moving from the screen.

CampusNexus CRM database passwords are specific to servers and SQL instances and must conform to all rules applying to the servers before setup can begin. This information must be gathered before running this tool. The information is subsequently stored in the Settings folder of the Installation Manager directory.

Important: Information on all Installation Manager screens is not saved until you exit the screen by clicking or by clicking another component on the navigation menu.
