Example Company 01 Company 02 The domain names used for TASS internally and externally must be the same. This is because the TASS application needs to know how to refer to itself.

Enable 'No Cache' headers | It is unlikely that your school will need to enable this. It was introduced into the software as an option for a school that was having 'left-field' problems due to the way that their browser access control was configured. Turning this on does affect the users' browser history navigation and can lead to portal programs displaying page errors when the user leaves the program. | |||||||||||||||||||
Logout Redirect URL | You would use this if you will be using SSO (Single-Sign-On) for the portal that you are setting up. You enter the URL to redirect the user once they have logged out or their session has expired. | |||||||||||||||||||
