Configuring Districts
Support for districts – collections of project data typically based on geographic or business
unit criteria – is provided by OpenWorks in R5000. No additional configuration is required
within WOW. Districts are listed in the OpenWorks configuration directory $OW_CONF_DIR
(typically $OWHOME/conf) district.dat file.
The district is set on a per-client basis by clicking on ‘Change District/SID’ on the WOW
top bar. This sets a cookie that stores the district name locally and ‘remembers’ it until
changed by any user on the same client. This option will also change the OWSYSSID
(OpenWorks Oracle instance) to match that specified for the chosen district.
Patching the Installation
WebApps patches (bug fixes only) and updates (bug fixes and minor enhancements) are
designed as simple compatible additions or replacements of existing files in the software
directories. They are provided as compressed tar files, available for download from the
Landmark Software Manager.
Before installing any WebApps patch or update, please see the associated README for
detailed installation instructions. This README is available alongside the patch on the
Landmark Software Manager by clicking the Install Guide icon.
Current version can be obtained by clicking on ‘About’ on the WOW browser interface.
