|-
| '''System Name''' || A value specified in the Client Configuration Tool of the IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> TrayLauncher where system administrators can set a separate system name for each installation of IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>. For example, the Headquarters installation could have “HQ” as a system name while a regional installation could have “R1.”
|-
| '''Incremented Number''' || A value that increases each time a new ID is generated. Information managers can specify the next number to be generated when the local ID generator button is clicked. For example, a new local ID starting with CR-HQ-1 and proceeding to CR-HQ-2 and so on will be generated each time the Completion Report local ID generator is clicked.
