Workstation Preferences

Workstation Preferences allow users to customize general OASIS settings, such as auto-login, the temp directory location, and various print settings, as well as customize settings for the entire database, such as changing the connection speed and enabling debug connection. These preferences save to the Preferences file in the user's .oasis folder, meaning they will only apply to the machine that the changes were made on. 

Requirements:

• Users must have admin access to Software.

Note:

• It is strongly recommended to contact OASIS Support by calling 501-843-6750 or emailing support@oasissalessoftware.com before making changes to understand how the changes will affect OASIS performance and behavior.

1. Navigate to the Configuration page, then select Software from the drop-down list.

2. Under Workstation Configuration, click Preferences.

3. The Workstation Settings window will appear. It contains two tabs: General and Database.

The General Tab

• Auto login- check this box to automatically log into OASIS when OASIS is launched
  • User ID- enter your User ID

• Force printer resolution to x DPI- define the printer resolution for prints in OASIS
• Safe margins- set safe margins on prints in OASIS
• Hide OASIS icon in Windows Tray- hide the icon in the system tray on Windows machines

  • Fast- make more calls to the database
• Auto DB Reconnect- allow the database to automatically reconnect after network disruptions
• Cache database calls- cache all calls that are made to the database
