Implementing NEOSYS
Setting up the System Configuration File
See System Configuration File for detailed description. The following points are essential configuration and must not be ignored.
- All configurations must be carefully done after evaluating which Scope they fall under.
- Configure alert email addresses in the System Configuration File (make sure that there is at least 1 person from the client management [ ] and one person from client IT [ ] who receives the backup alert)
- Configure URL/Web Address to access NEOSYS. This is very important for a Timesheet module installation as the approver links are picked up from the configuration.
- Set the User Timezone
- Set up Email Domains and IP Numbers. Support staff MUST add the client's email domain to NEOSYS internal email whitelist (Webmin -> Servers -> SpamAssassin Mail Filter -> Allowed and Denied Addresses), so that emails from this client do not get automatically marked as spam.
- If NEOSYS is hosted by the client, then add the client's outgoing public IP address to Zoneedit > dns > TXT records > neosys.com , otherwise email providers may refused to receive emails from the client's NEOSYS server. The outgoing IP number can be found by doing Ctrl+u on an email from the client's NEOSYS server and checking the "Received: from" section.
- Set up Sender Email Address. Support staff MUST add the Sender Email Address to the aliases for support@neosys.com (Virtualmin -> Edit Mail Aliases). Then send a test email to the Sender Email Address to check whether the sent email is received in support@neosys.com inbox
Start neosysddns service for Client's with dynamic ip
See Starting NEOSYS DDNS Service to start the neosysddns service so that NEOSYS monitoring server at monitor.neosys.com updates zonedit.com with the latest ip of the client server.
You MUST check if the ip is actually getting updated otherwise if the ip changes and neosysddns is not working we will lose access to the server. See Troubleshooting NEOSYS DDNS Service for commands to do so.
Update Support.htm
Add the new client to the list of clients page.
Setting up a new company in the new database
Refer to the sample email for New Company creation in existing Database/New Database
Once the new company is added to the database:
- Set up exchange rate as "1" for the base currency by going to the Currency and Exchange Rate File
- Delete “Client X” from the Client and Brand File
- Set the letterhead refer to Configuring Letterhead
Change the system mark for each of the new databases that were created. See Configuring Client Security Mark
