Each option is entered as text in the Option section of System, Group, User and Terminal settings. In addition, some options are License options that can only be activated when stated on your License Activation document. Options can be translated from CaliachMRP 4000 strings using the list below.
Each option has a set of privileges which determine where the option can be entered, and these are shown on the right.

| optSystemEditTimer | T, S, Sy, U | Set to the seconds (if 0 system overrides to 240) during an on-window edit process after which a forced cancel is initiated with a 10 sec warning. If the warning is cancelled, a further period is given. Normal is 240 + 10 + 120 + 10 = 380 secs. (CalMRP = 4021) |
| optTaxListInCurrency | T, S, Sy, U | Set to 1 if you wish tax breakdown lists on documents to read in the currency of the document rather than local currency. |
| optTaxOnUpliftValue | Sy | List of TaxRegime,UpliftPercent, separated by commas, of those tax regimes where the tax is calculated on the goods value uplifted by a percentage. |
| optTimeShowSecs | T, S, Sy, U | Set to 1 or 2 if you wish time and datetime data is displayed with seconds (1) and centiseconds (2) added. Warning: columns in lists and reports may overflow. Option only becomes effective at logon. |
| optUsernameServerN | T | Used in conjunction with optPasswordServerN and optForceLogonEntryServerN. N=1 for MySQL and 2 for PostgreSQL. Forces the server logon name and password where password entry by the user can be forced. |

| optWOBackYieldScrap | Sy | When this is set to 1, during the backflush of a WO the system defaults any yield loss as scrapped so that the kit quantity accommodates yield. This is not suitable for MRP scheduled orders because MRP will schedule the yield into the WO quantity and therefore using this option will duplicate the yield losses. |
| optWOCanAddParent | Sy | Set to 1 when you wish to permit the WO assembly part itself being added as an extra part to a Backflushed WO. This provides for partial re-processing. |
| optWODefaultIndivText | Sy | Set to 1 will cause Part Works individual text to be a default comment for all Work Orders for the Part. If not set, the text will be printed on WOs as assembly text. (CalMRP = 4011) |
| optWODefPrintOnCreate | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1 when you create a Work Order the print option will be selected. (CalMRP = 4025) |
| optWOFromSOInheritMrp | Sy | Set to 1 will cause the SO line item Ignore for MRP flag to be copied to the resulting WO. |
| optWOHistOpCom | Sy | Set to 1, causes pop-up operation history comment entry for each Shopfloor or Log WO Performance entry. Set to 2, for the same in Receive WO and Backflush WO, additionally. Use optWOHistOpComment for default comment text. |
| optWOHistOpComText | Sy | The default text for work operation history comments. Used in conjunction with the optWOHistOpCom option. The syntax <CR> is replaced by a return character for multi-line text. |
| optWOHistoryEditPlan | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1, the planned times in Log WO Performance can be edited or cleared. Typically useful where you have alternative route operations and do not want un-processed operations costed. |
| optWOInheritsUserFields | Sy | Set to 1234, or any combination, will cause those WO user defined fields to be inherited from the assembly part fields. |
| optWOKitEngChange | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1 or 2, users will be warned = 1 or prevented = 2 from issuing component parts which have the Engineering-in-Progress set. Operates in WO kitting and backflush and PO Outwork kitting. |
| optWOKitSort | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1, the sort order of the kit list printed on the Work Order will be by BoM Reference then Part Number rather than just by Part Number. (CalMRP = 4003) |
| optWONewCheckSpec | Sy | Set with any or all of BRQW characters. When a WO is created the system will check that the assembly has a BoM if a B, has a Process Route if an R, has a QA Test Regime if a Q and if a W is entered the user will only be warned rather than prevented. |
| optWONoPartChange | Sy | If set to 1 after you create a Work Order you will not be able to change the order assembly part number. |
| optWOOutworkWarn | T, S, Sy, U | Warn user when receiving Work Orders where outwork operations have not yet been fully received. Normal operation would prevent work order receipt. |

| optWOPickSort | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1, the sort order of the Work Order Picking List will be by BoM Reference then Location then Part Number rather than just by Location and then Part Number. (CalMRP = 4002) |
| optWOPickStoComments | T, S, Sy, U | Set to the number of Stock Location Comments characters that should be printed extra on a Work Order Picking List when multi-locations are shown. |
| optWOPrepDateChange | Sy | If set to 1, WO preparation history will be recorded for completion due date changes. |
| optWOPrintMarkAll | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1, when printing an WO it is marked as printed regardless of the report destination. |
| optWOProcessListField | T, S, Sy, U | An alternative to WO comments displayed when a line is selected in the part processing quantity drill-down listing. A valid calculation can be entered using fields from the WO and assy Part files. E.G. con(PTMPTNO – PTMDESC) shows part and desc. (CalMRP = 4029) |
| optWOQtySumUoM | Sy | Backflushing WO Receive Qty will be set to the sum of Component quantities with stock UoM equal to text entered here. It is case-insensitive. Good for food or chemicals where the product weight or volume is the sum of kit. (CalMRP = 4004) See also optBoMQtySumUoM. |
| optWOShopDefaultZero | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1, in Shopfloor Work Operation Data Collection receipt quantity will default to zero rather than the available receipt quantity for the operation. |
| optWOShopOpOutSeq | Sy | If set to 1, users will be permitted to record work order operations out of sequence in Shopfloor Work Operation Data Collection. |
| optWOShopReceive | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1, users with appropriate privileges and posting final operations in Shopfloor Work Operation Data Collection and Work Tracking will be automatically presented with pre-loaded WO Receipt or Work Order Backflush windows. |
| optWoNoEngChange | T, S, Sy, U | If set to 1, users will be prevented from creating a Work Order for a part which has Engineering-in-Progress set, rather than just being given a warning. |
| optWorkTrackingLateHrs | Sy | This is available to change the time permitted for a finish event to be recorded after which a new Work Tracking record is created. The default is 12 hours unless you enter a numeric value in this option. Decimal hours are permitted. (CalMRP = 4030) |
| optWorkTrackingOpSeq | Sy | If set to 1, users will NOT be permitted to record work order operations out of sequence in Work Tracking. |
| optYesNoStrSwap | Sy | A comma-delimited list of String Numbers for yes/no and no/yes messages that should be reversed from their standard defaults within the program. |
