The General page centralizes platform-wide defaults and housekeeping rules. It’s organized into four tabs:

Time Based – how long to keep logs and histories

Finance – billing and balance limits

Client – customer-facing timeouts

Social – your company’s social/profile links

All tabs share a Save button (top-right). Changes apply system-wide.

Time Based (log retention)

Use this tab to control how long different histories are kept before cleanup jobs remove them.

Admin Session Log History – days to keep admin login/session logs.

Client Session Log History – days to keep client session logs.

Activity Log History – days to keep system activity logs (actions, events).

Module Log History – days to keep module-specific logs.

Notification History – days to keep notification entries.

Completed Task Queue History – days to keep completed queue items.

Task Queue History – days to keep all queue task records.

User Verification Code Lifetime – minutes a verification code remains valid.

Tips

Shorter values reduce storage usage and improve log queries.

Keep compliance needs in mind (audit requirements) before trimming aggressively.

General › Time Based tab with retention fields.

Finance (billing defaults & limits)

Define monetary guardrails and invoice behavior.

Default Invoice Due Days – number of days after issue date when invoices are due.

Minimum Add Funds Amount – smallest wallet/top-up amount allowed.

Maximum Add Funds Amount – largest single top-up amount allowed.

Maximum Client Balance – hard ceiling for a client’s total wallet balance.

Best practices

Align Default Invoice Due Days with your dunning/collections process.

Set realistic Min/Max Add Funds to reduce micro-payments and risk.

Use Max Client Balance to avoid accounting or AML headaches.

General › Finance tab with invoice and balance limits.

Client (customer timeouts)

A small but important setting for customer security & UX.

Reset Password URL Expire (minutes) – how long a password-reset link remains valid after it’s issued.

Guidance

30–120 minutes is common; lower values are more secure, higher values are more forgiving.

General › Client tab with reset link expiry.

Social (brand & contact presence)

Store the official social/profile identifiers used across notifications and the client portal. Fields include:

Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Telegram, Twitter (X), Viber, Discord, Reddit, Vimeo, GitHub, Flickr, Skype, Bitbucket, Gitter, Slack.

Usage

Enter full URLs where applicable; for chat apps, follow the placeholder notes (e.g., WhatsApp in full international format, Discord invite URL path).

These can be pulled into notification templates or shown in the client area footer/headers, depending on your theme.

General › Social tab with profile/link fields.

Workflow summary

Go to Dashboard → Settings → General.

Work through each tab (Time Based → Finance → Client → Social).

Click Save (top-right).

If you reduced retention periods, confirm your Scheduler/Cleanup tasks are enabled (so old data is actually purged).

Review notification templates/layouts if you plan to surface your social links there.

Quick defaults (safe starting points)

Admin/Activity/Module logs: 7–30 days
