2.1.3 Company Parameters
The Company parameters control the system processes associated with functions that may vary for different companies or branches. These parameters address credit scoring, credit bureau interfaces, fax services, and fax generation. Individual parameters may be set up with different values for uniquely defined company and branch combinations.
When these parameters values are requested by the system, the system responds with the best match based on a hierarchical sort ordered on company and branch fields, with values of ALL being a lower order match than an exact match. For example, assume the company parameter UIX_RUN_AAI_ACT (ONLINE ACCOUNT CREATION AND ACTIVATION) has been defined as:
- When processing items for the company US01, the system will return a value N and not create and activate an account online.
- When processing items for the company other than US01 and within the value ALL, the system will return with a value Y and create and activate an account online.
- Click Setup > Setup > Administration > System > System Parameters > Company tab.
- On the Company Parameters screen, perform any of the Basic Operations mentioned in Navigation chapter.
A brief description of the fields is given below:
Table 2-5 Company Parameters setup

Parameter Value Specify the value for the system parameter. Company Select the portfolio company for which the parameter will be valid from drop-down list. Branch Select the portfolio branch for which the parameter will be valid from the drop-down list (required).
IMPORTANT: In selecting which company parameter to use, the system searches for a best match using the following attributes:
1. Company
2. Branch
For this reason, the Software recommends creating a version of each company parameter where ALL is the value in these fields.
