# Corporate Default Screen in EMDECS
## Introduction
To change what a specific user sees, please refer to our**[User Defaults](https://knowledge.brightorder.com/user-defaults?hsLang=en)** document!
Corporate Defaults in EMDECS are the primary control point and/or safety net for much of the EMDECS system functionality. Setting corporate defaults can control things such as your default Warehouse or Repair Location when accessing any given screen, default currency, the unit owner for your corporation, and many other settings that will be outlined in the article below.
#### Accessing the Corporate Defaults Screen
The Corporate Default screen is accessed by navigating to **Administration -\> Corporate Setup Manager -\> Corporate Defaults**
**Please note - **Any modifications to this area of the system can cause issues or errors for your users so please be mindful when making any changes to the screen displayed below.
If you are ***unable to see the Corporate Defaults*** tab due to screen size, please first ***select the double arrows in the bottom right corner (\>\>)*** and select Corporate Defaults
****
Once you have navigated to the Corporate Defaults screen, you should be able to view your current parameter settings that were either applied during your implementation process, or by users in your system at a later point.
#### Corporate Default Screen - Fields and Values
The Corporate Defaults screen controls defaults across the system. Below is a breakdown of the screen and fields/values displayed
**Field Name - **These are codes which are used for various settings across the system. These codes ***are not user defined***
**Description -** Descriptions explain what the code in the Field Name is, for example **CUR\_CODE** has the description of **Currency Code**
**Default Value -** The Default Value is **user-defined** in most cases. This value ties to various setups across the system
1. **E.x** You may wish to create a Repair Location with a Code/Name of '**MAINE**' that needs to be the default location users see when accessing EMDECS. You'd first create the location, then set the **FAC\_CODE** field to **'MAINE'**. If you do not do the Location Setup first, the code will not be available as a value on the Corporate Defaults screen
**Note**: A code can only be added once. If it is already on the list of set parameters you cannot add it again however you may change the current value

#### Setting a Corporate Default
To set a corporate default, use the **+Add** button on the right-hand side of the screen
Lets add the **FAC\_CODE** (Facility Code or 'Repair Location' Code) value to our corporation! First select **+Add** and choose the **FAC\_CODE** option from the dropdown
Choose a **FAC\_CODE** value, the values available come from the **Administration -\> Corporate Setup Manager -\> Repair Locations** tab
Use the **Magnifying Glass** and **Search** without any options selected to receive a list of all setup options available!
We'll be setting this to **SHOP** as displayed below. Select **Save / Exit** once done
This should now take affect for users upon their next login! For example, when my user signs in their default location is now 'SHOP'
#### Changing an Existing Corporate Default
To change an existing Corporate Default, select the** Field Name hyperlink** and change the ***Default Value.***
In the previous example, we set the FAC\_CODE to SHOP, however, we would now like our users by default to sign into the 'Montreal' location.
Once you have completed your change, select Save / Exit to finalize the change.
Upon the next login of your user, the system will display 'Montreal' as the default location users see when they sign in
