Overview #

The Settings – Setup page is used to configure setup-related options and supporting records needed by different modules in the system. This page allows administrators to manage initial data, run checking and fixing tools, create custom fields, configure the left menu, manage system accounts, define payment methods, and set shipping options. It serves as a central configuration area where administrators prepare and maintain important records and system options that affect how other modules function.

This page is important because many of the settings found here are connected to actual module operations. For example, some initial data options redirect the user to other modules for data management, custom fields affect what additional inputs are shown in forms, the check and fix page helps verify and correct attendance-related records, and payment or shipping setup affects transactions and operational workflows. By using this page, the administrator can organize and maintain the system properly before or during actual use.
