Referencing
You should only update this file for temporary debugging purposes (i.e. not as a method to update values for the service).
Any temporary changes made to the configuration files are reset to their original installation values when this application is next updated. Because these temporary changes are not carried forward, forgetting that you made them could hamper troubleshooting efforts if unexpected issues arise.
Any configuration changes made using the DFM Service Maintenance program only takes effect when next the service polls for a change in configuration information.
The following settings can be maintained using the DFM Service Maintenance program within SYSPRO:
- Configuration polling interval
