Overview

This application allows the user to maintain parameters for Arena Operations applications.

Parameter Naming Conventions

A parameter name consists of a Section and an Entry.  Sections are high level groupings which make searching for parameters easier.  Usually these will relate to the functional area of the system where the parameter is being used, such as "ArenaRostering" or "System".  The Entry field specifies the parameter name, such as "SessionTimeout".  Parameter names are usually written in Pascal case.

Creating New Parameters

While the Maintain Parameters application allows the creation of new parameters, there are some fields that need to be set up correctly to allow the parameter value to be validated correctly.  Developers should review the documentation on the Parameters table to learn about these extra fields which aren't visible from the Maintain Operations Parameters application.

Additional Information

The Maintain Operations Parameters application contains the following fields:

Field	Description
Section	The section grouping for this parameter.
Entry	The parameter name.
Value	The system-wide setting for the parameter.  This value is restricted depending on the validation settings when the parameter was created by the developer.
Description	A human readable description which explains the purpose of the parameter.
