Manage settings in the Management Console

You can select the date format to be used in the Management Console and the default model data storage location. You can also configure the settings for malware scanning in new shared models.

Select the date format

You can select between different date formats and define if the local time is shown. These settings are personal and do not affect what other uses see in the Management Console.

In the navigation pane of the Management Console for Tekla Model Sharing, click Settings.
In the Personal settings, select the date format from the list.
If you want local time to be shown, turn on the Show local time setting.

Select the default model data storage location

The default model data storage location defines the region where Tekla Model Sharing model data is stored for your organization.

The default location is automatically selected as the model data storage location when users share a model. Users can only select a different model data storage location if you allow them to do so.

In the navigation pane of the Management Console for Tekla Model Sharing, click Settings.
In the Organization settings, select the default model data storage location from the list.
If you want to allow users to select the data storage location in their Tekla Model Sharing projects, turn on the Allow users to select any geolocation setting.

Manage the locking of the shared model when malware is detected

When a new shared model is uploaded, it is scanned for malware. You can define if the shared model is automatically locked when possible malware has been detected.

By default, a model is automatically locked when possible malware is detected until the administrator unlocks it. For more information, see Lock models and delete model versions in the Management Console.

In the navigation pane of the Management Console for Tekla Model Sharing, click Settings.
If you do not want the models to be automatically locked when possible malware is detected, in the Malware scanning settings, turn off the Lock model when malware is detected setting.
