  1. Log in to the Swift MEAP™ console
  2. Navigate to Administrator -> System Keys
  3. Use the search or navigate to set the key enable.multi.config to system key to Yes
  4. You need to define which field in the user record should be used to determine the configuration a user receives.  This needs to be set in the key multi.config.field.name.  For more information, see Multi-configuration Process.  Note: This can be the last process followed, to prevent users activating before a CAD is available for them.  Until this is defined, all users will receive the Base Configuration.
  5. You need to create individual configurations with a name that matches the multi.config.field.name (user record values).  For more information on how records are routed, see Multi-configuration Process
    1. Navigate to Cad Management menu item and select the Configuration/language management tab
    2. In the Configuration Management section, there is a drop down selection menu.  This will contain "Base Configuration" by default.  To add a new configuration, select Manage followed by Add.  You will be asked to provide a name for the configuration.  This should match a value you expect in the user record, for example "Management" in the examples used in Multi-configuration Process
    3. A configuration with the name enteredwill entered will be created, you can now select this configuration from a drop down selection menu at the top of many pages.  The configuration will be identical to the current "Base configuration".  You can now change individual settings to suit your users needs.  For information on what can be changed, see Multi-configuration structure / features
  6. When your changes are complete, you need to save a CAD for users of the new configuration.  Until this is complete, users who activate and should receive a "Management" cad (see example in Multi-configuration Process) will see an error.  This is because you have enabled multi-config, the server has found a multi-configuration user (matched with multi.config.field.name) but cannot find a CAD within that configuration.  To save a CAD for the new configuration:
    1. Navigate to Cad Management menu item and select the Cad list tab
    2. Select your configuration from the drop down menu at the top of the screen
    3. Select the Create new cad button
    4. Enter the name you wish to give the individual CAD in the Version name field
    5. IMPORTANT:  Ensure you select your correct configuration in the Configuration name dropdown, this will default to Base Configuration, you need to manually select where you want the cad saved (which multi-configuration name)
    6. Set production cad / comments options and select save
    7. In the Cad list, you can only view cads saved in the current configuration.  To switch to another configuration, use the drop down selection box at the top of the screen, in the top menu bar.  Selecting different configurations automatically refreshes the screen and displays CAD's saved within a particular configuration.
