IMSMA Client Configuration Tool

The Client Configuration tool can be displayed if you right-click on the control centre icon and select IMSMA Client Configuration Tool:

The parameter SystemName is used for building up local IDs and will reduce the risk of duplicate IDs when Data Entry is decentralised.

Local ID generators are used when generating a Local ID in a Data Entry Form by clicking on . The Local ID of a Data Entry Template is built up five parts:

1. Prefix from the Local ID generator
2. divider (usually hyphen) i.e. -
3. System Name set in IMSMA Client Configuration Tool (optional)
4. divider (usually hyphen) i.e. -
5. Next Number from the Local ID generator

which for an Activity may look like CR-MAG HQ-1 or for a Victim Vic-MACC3-4581.

The System Name may be set for each computer where IMSMA^NG is installed. For example, the MAG Head quarter's computer could have MAG HQ as a system name while a regional installation could have MAG R1.
