Parameters

SystemName

The parameter SystemName is used for building up local IDs and can 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 composed of 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.
