The Case Management System’s default settings are listed in the chart below. Unless otherwise stated, Administrators can change the following settings on a company-wide basis using the Edit Settings page:

Function

Default

Description

Allow Lighthouse/Syntrio Reports to be Deleted

OFF 

By default, Syntrio reports cannot be deleted.

This setting can only be changed by Syntrio. Please reach out to Client Success to make a change to this setting.

Allow Internal Reports to be Deleted

ON

By default, Internal reports can be deleted.

This setting can only be changed by Syntrio. Please reach out to Client Success to make a change to this setting.

Allow Locations to be Associated with Divisions

OFF

Allows the association of Locations to one or more Divisions. This will provide filtering of Locations when a Division is chosen on the Add and Edit Incident Report pages

Suppress Report/Dialog in Emails

OFF

This setting allows Administrators to suppress all report and dialog content within an email from the CMS. If this feature is enabled, incident report assignment emails and dialog emails generated by the CMS between the company and the reporter or Lighthouse/Syntrio will only contain the case number. Report text or dialog text will not be included in the email body. The company's CMS users would then need to sign in to the CMS to view the report/dialog.

New Incident Report Email Notification 

OFF 

This setting enables Administrators to be emailed when a new incident report is added to the CMS.

Dialog Copy Administrators

ON

All Administrators will receive email notifications when there is a dialog response by a reporter. Note that Investigators assigned to a report will also receive the email notification.

Email Status Change to Administrator

OFF

When enabled, Administrators are notified of an incident report status change. If no Administrator has been assigned to a report, all Administrators are notified.

Allow Deletion of Files Uploaded by Company​

ON

This setting allows Administrators to permit or prevent users from deleting files uploaded by the company for incident reports. This feature is enabled by default and allows users to delete company-uploaded files for incident reports.

Populate Sender Field on Emails

ON 

This setting allows Administrators to receive bounce-back messages on failed emails to a user. If this feature is not enabled, Administrators will not receive any notification that a CMS-generated email to a user has failed. 

This feature may need to be disabled if the company’s SPAM rules are stringent and don’t allow the Sender field to be an email address from their domain. 

Restrict Access to CMS Via IP Address

OFF

This setting allows Administrators to restrict access to the CMS by IP Address. If this field is checked, only company-specified IP addresses will be able to access the CMS.

Enforce Lockout On Unsuccessful Login Attempts

OFF

This setting allows Administrators to lock an account if the user has 5 consecutive failed login attempts. If this feature is enabled, a user's account will automatically lock after 5 consecutive failed login attempts. If this occurs, the user's account can only be unlocked by an Administrator or Syntrio.

If this feature is not enabled, a user will be presented with a CAPTCHA challenge-response test after 5 consecutive failed login attempts.

Two Factor PIN Authentication Required

OFF

This setting allows Administrators to require a PIN during the login process in addition to username and password credentials. The PIN will be emailed to the user when they attempt to log in.

'Division' Field Name 

Division 

This setting allows Administrators to change the default label text of 'Division' to something different such as 'Department' or 'Subsidiary' throughout CMS.

Require 'Outcome' to Close Report

 OFF 

This feature enables an Administrator to require that a user enter an outcome before a report can be marked Closed.

Automatic Dialog Message

OFF

If this field is populated and a report is entered into the CMS by Syntrio, an automatic email message will be sent to the reporter if the reporter provided their email address. This message will also be saved in the report’s Dialog record if dialog has been enabled by the reporter.

Confidentiality Disclosure on CMS Emails

OFF 

This feature allows an Administrator to include text at the bottom of each email sent by the CMS. Any text in this field will be appended to CMS-generated emails.

Quick Response Messages

ON

Quick response messages can be used by the company when responding to reporters on the dialog page. One quick response message is included by default and will appear on the Dialog page. Company CMS users can edit, create, and save up to five quick response messages. 

To disable this feature, remove all of the message text from the 'Manage Quick Response Messages' page.
