Overview of System Configuration in RentWorks+

A guide to the settings under System Configuration — what each section contains and how to use Field Management and Notifications.

System Configuration is the administration hub for org-wide settings in RentWorks+. From the sidebar, select System Configuration to expand the menu. The sections available are Vehicle Commission Statuses, Integrations, Security, Field Management, Notifications, Message of the Day, Brands, Brand Analytics, System Settings, Branding, and Database. Access to some sections may be limited by your role.

Vehicle Commission Statuses

Vehicle Commission Statuses is the first item in the menu. This section lets you manage the commission status codes used for franchise reporting workflows including HUF, SixSense, and BBARS. Each status has a code, a description, and an active/inactive toggle. Statuses can be created, edited, or deactivated from this page.


Integrations

1. Click Integrations to view all active third-party integrations for your tenant. Each integration shows its Status, Category, Enabled date, and billing details. Tabs across the top of the page group integrations by type — for example, Signiphi E-Signature and Communication.

Notifications

The Notifications page manages automated and manual notifications sent to renters and staff. It has four tabs: Settings, Delivery Logs, Manual Notifications, and History.

Click any notification to open its configuration on the right. Each notification has a master Notification Enabled toggle and individual channel toggles for Email, SMS, and Internal notifications. The Timing / Process Rules section lets you add schedule rules to control when the notification fires.

Brands
