Common folder settings

The registry settings in the Common folder are a select list of individual settings.

Maximum rows in exchange rate upload file
Define the Maximum Import Rows setting to limit the number of rows that can be in the CSV file that is used to upload currency exchange rates with the Currencies task in the Task Focused UI or the Administration > Currencies task in the Standard UI.
Use legacy associate
Controls whether associate operations use the new interface or the legacy interface.
Exclude characters from user names
When you create user names, you can exclude the use of any alphanumeric and special characters, including spaces, through the Illegal Characters setting.
Set the system security model
By default, the security context point at which you can assign role templates to users on objects in the hierarchy is set at the Business Entity (SOXBusEntity) level. You can extend the security context to other objects in the hierarchy to achieve a finer level of control by changing the Model setting.
Disable access control on Role groups
When a role template is disabled, you can use the Disable Role Group setting to globally control the security access of users and groups who were previously assigned that role.
Configure self-contained object types
When you define an object type using the Self Contained Object Types setting, the behavior of that object type changes for copy, move, and rename operations.
Enable the CodeCogs Equation Editor in Rich Text fields
When you enable the CodeCogs Equation Editor with the Enable CodeCogs(r) Equation Editors setting, users can enter mathematical equations in Rich Text fields. The equations are rendered in all views. They are also represented in Cognos® reports in HTML output.
