8. Tips
- Complete the Overview tab first so identity and branding are in place.
- Configure Outgoing Mail and eSignature early — Templates depend on eSignature.
- Use Ping buttons to validate credentials before saving.
- Plan Catalogs carefully — they drive dropdowns throughout the application.
- Define Roles and Permissions before creating users.
9. Troubleshooting
| Issue | Resolution |
|---|---|
| Cannot see Organisation in the left nav | Confirm you are signed in as an Admin. |
| Outgoing Mail Ping fails | Re-check Email Server, Port, Username/Sender and Password. |
| eSignature Ping fails | Verify Client Id, User Id, Account Id, Host and Security Key File. |
| Template tags not replaced | Ensure tags match exactly (including ${ } syntax) and eSignature is complete. |
| Language change not reflected | Save the Overview tab and refresh the application. |
| New role not in User Management | Confirm the role was saved and permissions assigned. |
