Unified VSS Enablement

Unified VSS functionality is enabled through coordinated configuration across multiple system components. This section outlines the configuration updates required to activate Unified VSS within the Advantage environment. The steps below do not need to be performed in a specific sequence; however, all configuration elements must be set correctly for Unified VSS to be enabled.

Note: Once a site has been configured for Unified VSS, it cannot be reverted to a standalone VSS deployment.

The following values must be set:

app=fin

subApp=vss

The user ID and password specified for the guest session must match the values stored in the User Information (R_SC_USER_INFO) table for the guest user: 

app.metadata.store.useguestsession=true

app.metadata.store.user=guest

app.metadata.store.password=advantage

  1. Changes to ADV30Params.ini

The Primary Application value must be set to 4 to indicate the Unified FIN/VSS deployment.
