Preferences

Preferences are the standard mechanism for application configuration in Money Mobiliser. Use the Preferences option to manage operation-level configuration data such as timeouts, retries when communicating with other systems, and thread pool sizes. The standard Money Mobiliser installation comes with two applications: businesslayer and presentationlayer.

You can add applications and preference nodes. Additionally, you can import the node information from an XML file, which contains the application name, path of the node, and preference keys and values. When you import the data it is added to the path of the node indicated in the XML file.

• Applications
  Preferences can be defined for multiple applications, each with a unique name and access rights. The application must have a unique name and may optionally have a description. You can define read or write privileges or both for the application. If read or write privileges are not defined, any user invoking Money Mobiliser services can retrieve or set preference values. You can also edit or remove applications.
• Nodes and System Preferences
  Preference nodes store system preferences and configuration data. Each system preference contains a key-value pair associated with a preference path. You can add a preference node, which requires the application name and full node path.  If the application does not exist, you must add the application before adding a preference node. You can remove preference nodes, but you cannot edit them.
