  • Disable Pre-load People List – this option is used to improve performance when you have in excess of 50,000 contacts in your copy of SmartSimple. Enabling this option will disable the display of contacts in all Search People pages.
  • Enforce Homepage - you can force all users to the same web page when they first log into the system. This feature is useful if you have customers using the system and want to present them with some specific information such as your own organisation web site.
  • Homepage – specifies a web page to be used as the homepage.
  • Language – the default language for all new users.

Checking this box does not override the home page setting for each user, but simply defines the first page they will see when logging in.
