Learn how to enable the auto-calculation override option for system-calculated fields.

About the Feature

Support for Auto-Calculation Override was added to Vault Safety in 22R2. This feature allows you to override system auto-calculations for certain fields with manual data entry.

Vaults created in 22R2 or later include the necessary configuration by default, while Vaults originally deployed earlier than 22R2 must have the configuration upgrades described on this page to enable this feature.

Once you have completed the configuration steps on this page, see Manage Auto-Calculation Override for more information.

Configure the Safety Application Settings

You must enable the auto-calculation override option in the Safety General Settings section:
