    Most mapping tables can be configured at the institution level. In some cases, it is necessary to configure mapping tables at specific levels. As a rule, if the mapping table is used for an entity that belongs to a specific institution (such as an institution, a data source, or a view), it should be configured at the institution level. For more information on configuration levels, see Primo Configuration Levels.

    Tables that cannot be modified at a specific configuration level are view-only until you select the correct configuration level in the Update for Owner drop-down list. Customers who do not have installation-level permissions may not have access to some tables.

    Installation-Level Only Tables

    The following table lists which mapping tables must be configured at the installation level and cannot be configured per institution. Customers who do have installation-level permissions will not have access to these tables.

    Because Mult-tenant customers share these configurations with other tenants, they cannot be modified per customer.
