Environment

Admin → Settings → Environment sets the regional behaviour of the workspace: date formats, username display, and login behaviour. Format changes have a live preview, so you can see the result before saving.

Date and time

Setting Effect
Date format How dates are displayed across the application

User display

Setting Effect
Username format How usernames are displayed

Login

Setting Effect
Forgot password Allows users to request a password reset; it needs a working email server

Case lists

The Case lists panel keeps one setting: the date format used in lists. The older options that used to live here — rows per page, refresh interval, hiding process information in a new case — are gone; do not look for them.

Clear the caches

Below the case-list panel there is a Clear all caches card.

  1. Choose Clear.
  2. Confirm.

The card reports success when it finishes. It is deliberately independent from Save: saving the page does not clear caches, and clearing caches does not change any setting.

Save

Choose Save to store the regional settings. The page reports success, and after a reload the values are still there. Dates everywhere else in the application then use the configured format — in user lists, language lists, and document records — instead of a raw database format or UTC.

What this page does not change

  • It does not change the language; that is Language.
  • It does not change colours; that is Themes.
  • It does not change the time zone or session lifetime; those are in System configuration.
