ServiceNow

1E Core post-installation tasks

Post-installation tasks, which include mandatory and optional configuration tasks.

The 1E Core application communicates with the Tachyon system that is hosted in your production network. Settings must be configured to manage how the 1E Core application works.

App Configuration Page

The App Configuration node is in the Administration section of the 1E Core app, where administrators can configure various application settings.

Note

This page is only accessible to a ServiceNow user that is a member of 1E Core app role x_1e_core_connect.admin. If the user is also a ServiceNow admin the page will only be accessible after setting the scope to 1E Core.

All the fields on the App Configuration page are mandatory with default values except the MID Server.

Warning

Due to the limitations of ServiceNow property pages, there are no validation checks applied to any of the settings. You should take extra care to ensure that all the fields are filled out correctly.
