The Settings section has been reorganized into clear groups, so you can quickly find what you need — from location details and branding to module configuration (payments, products, payroll) and system-wide parameters.

How to open Settings #

1. Open Administration mode.
2. Go to Settings.
3. Choose the section you want to configure.

Important: Some settings may be available only to certain roles. If you don’t see a section, ask your manager/admin to check your permissions.

Settings structure overview #

The Settings page is divided into 4 main groups:

1. Location — information clients see + legal/business data
2. Module settings — configure how key modules work (products, payroll, payments, receipts)
3. Category — create and manage categories used across the system
4. System settings — global parameters (country, language, timezone, integrations)

Location settings #

These sections control how your business is presented and what contact and legal information is stored.

Brand #

Category settings #

Categories help you organize data and make filtering/reporting easier.

Appointment Categories #

Tip

Categories are super useful for analytics and segmentation — set them up early, and keep naming consistent.
