The M5 Params Maintenance frame shows critical information on the M5 System. It's a very important screen and is often used in troubleshooting to view technical settings that were made during the installation. No parameters may be changed from this screen. See M5 Parameter Maintenance.
The M5_PARAMS table contains customizable settings that affect all companies in the database. It contains information about installation directories, machine names and shared directories. It must be configured before M5 is started. The easiest way is to use SqlDeveloper for an Oracle database or Query Analyzer for SQL Server.
For more information please contact M5 Support and/or consult the M5 Upgrade guide for more information about the M5 Install and configuring the M5_Params.
