Globalization
Default Language	The language used in the UI, the administrative interface, and Snap blocks.  Default: English.
Other Supported Languages	Any other languages used in the UI only.  Listing a language here is the first step in localizing your organization.

User Interface
Theme	The active theme for your company. Options include the standard, built-in themes and any custom themes you have defined.

Company Logo	Used in various places in the UI, including the upper-left header or the portal.
Display Products in Image Mode by Default	Users visiting your Products tab can choose to see products displayed in a list, or as a series of image thumbnails.  The default display is in a list. Check this box to show images instead.  Default: false.
Enable Customers and Contacts	Display the "Customers" and "Contacts" tabs across the top of the UI.  If your implementation does not use these objects, remove the checkbox to hide these unused tabs.
Authentication

Require mixed case passwords	Require a mix of upper- and lower-case letters when setting a password.
Require numbers in passwords	Require at least one number, 0-9, when setting a password.
Minimum Allowed Password Length	Require a certain number of characters (letters or numbers) when setting a password.
Password Reuse Limit	When your users reset their passwords, can they reuse an old password?  Set this number to prevent the reuse of X previous passwords.  Default: 0 (they can set their current password the same as any previous password).
Allow User Registration	If you own an unlimited license... check this box to allow any public visitor to register themselves online.  These users are automatically assigned the "self-registered" role.  uncheck this box to prevent self-registration.  Every user must have a login created for them by a Company Administrator.
Allow Anonymous Logins in Production Environment	Allows the public to browse and configure products without logging in. However, to submit a quote or use other features, they will be prompted to log in or register. This is similar to e-commerce platforms like Amazon, where no barrier prevents a user from browsing products and adding them to a shopping cart.  Later, when they want to purchase the items, they must create an account or sign in.
Auto-Deactivate Inactive Accounts	Enhance security by automatically deactivating any account which has been inactive for too long a time.  This time period you can specify (the default is 60 days).  If a user tries to log in after this time, their login will fail with the message "User has been locked out due to exceeding account activity timeout."  To restore their access, simply open their user record and click the "Reset Deactivation Timer" button.  Their password remains unchanged.
Logs
Log Setting	Controls how much is logged in your portal. Minimizing the amount of logs you collect is recommended to make it easier to find issues. The options are: All All logs will be collected. Minimal  Only error logs and those logs explicitly added by your rules will get logged. This is the default and recommended setting.
