Custom Email Footer This configuration will allow a system administrator to change the system wide S-Drive Email footer. The default email footer that is added to your email messages is "Attachment is stored online at S-Drive. To open this file, just click the link above."
Default Email Expiration Time This configuration will allow a system administrator to change the system wide S-Drive Default Email Expiration Time when sending email from the S-Drive component. If you do not set this value "Never Expires" is selected by default in the email screen. If you set a value, it will be displayed to all users that are using email screen. Users can always modify the email expiration time while sending the emails.
Embed Thread Id in Case Emails By setting this configuration, it adds thread id into the email of the case file. So, replies to that e-mail message are recorded in the Activity History of the same case and attachments in the replies are saved in the same case. This configuration is useful for the organizations that are using S-Drive Email Agent.
Case Email Reply-To Address Reply-to address for case related emails sent out via S-Drive. Usually this email address is the general support email address. This configuration is useful for the organizations that are using S-Drive Email Agent.

S-Drive File Objects List This is a list of S-Drive File Objects. All S-Drive File objects, including custom file objects that you create, must be listed here. Click “Manage” to access the list. See Add your Custom File Object to the S-Drive File Object List for details.
Max File Size in MBs This configuration will allow a system administrator to change the system wide behavior of max file size limit for uploads. File size limit is actually 5TB per file; however, due to Flash plug-in and browser limitations, the practical limit for file upload size via the browser is 2GBs. With this option, the user will be limited to a file size for each file. So, if you set maximum file size to "10". Users won't be able to upload files greater than 10 MBs.
If users try to upload a file greater than the limit, they will see an error message saying "Files greater than XYZ cannot be uploaded!”
Enable File Activities File Activities feature is a way to track the user activities on all file records in S-Drive. Actions such as Download, Open, Copy URL are stored in File Activities objects and can be easily tracked inside S-Drive or with Salesforce Reports. They can be configured for different types of activities separately for your S-Drive file objects. The user and activity time are also recorded as well as the activity type and additional details if there are any.
Enabling File Activities will consume data storage on your Salesforce organization.
The dropdown list shows all object files for objects using S-Drive. (See Note below if your file object is not on the list.) Choose the object file to configure from the dropdown list. Then select the activities you want recorded by moving them from Available Activities to Selected Activities. Click Save at the top or bottom of the page, then repeat for other object files you wish to use File Activities on.
The list of available file activities are as follows:
Download

Copy Url Expiration Date This configuration is for setting the expiration date of created URL of file.
Open/Download Url expiration time This setting determines how long a link will last when a file is opened or downloaded. This is for added security, so that if users copy the url from their browser and share it, you can limit how long that link will work. The default is 600 seconds (5 minutes.)

If duplicate filenames are allowed, a user can upload a file with the same name as a file that already exists.
If duplicate filenames are not allowed, the user will get one of two messages depending on their access to the file with the same name.
If they have delete access to the existing file of the same name, they will be given the option overwrite the file. If they choose not to, the upload will be canceled.
If they do not have delete access to the existing file, they will be told they cannot upload a file of the same name, and be asked to rename their file and try again.
Files with the same name are always allowed in different folders.

Daily SQueue batch jobs execution time SQueue is a an S-Drive service that executes batch jobs at 00:00 automatically if there are any. You can change execution time of batch jobs in this section. Check your Salesforce system time to set this value. You can check your default system time from Setup > Company Settings > Company Information > Default Time Zone. Daily batch jobs execute the deletion of previews of the files having multiple pages, the copying of files during the lead conversion process, retention policy jobs, and deleting shortcuts when the underlying file has been deleted.
Daily retention policy batch job execution time Set the time you want the retention policy batch job to run. See Records Management (PAID) for more information. This setting only appears if Retention Policy is enabled.
Storage Calculation The “Reset Job” button should be used when a non-Admin user has connected S-Drive in the portal. Certain permissions are needed that only an Admin user has, so an Admin user should reset the storage calculation job. If this is not done, S-Drive will get disconnected after a number of hours (depending on other configurations.)
Scheduled Calculation Frequency S-Drive calculates your S-Drive file storage throughout the day using a batch job. Use this setting to set how frequently the job runs. If your organization has many batch jobs, you can set this to run less frequently to avoid hitting daily limits. When set to Auto, it will run more or less often depending on the number of S-Drive files you have, which determines how many batches are used. The choices are from 2 to 24 times per day.

Enable Copying S-Drive Files and Folders When Converting Leads To This configuration is used to enable users to choose where to copy S-Drive files in Leads when a lead is converted. Available options are Accounts, Contacts and Opportunities. See Lead Conversion with S-Drive Files for details.
Allow deletion of parent records if they have S-Drive files By default, you cannot delete a record that has files on it for the out-of-the-box objects S-Drive supports that have a master-detail relationship with S-Drive files--Account, Case, Contact, Opportunity. However if you want to merge records, this causes a problem because the losing record is deleted during the merge, but it can’t be deleted if it has files. This setting allows you to override the default behavior and merge Accounts, Cases, Contacts, and Opportunities even if they have files.
