π Overview
The System Configuration tab in ChiroHD is a central control panel for enabling or disabling key features and permissions across your organization. Once your Tracking and Reporting Configuration is complete, this tabβfound under System Dashboard β System Settings β System Configurationβlets you fine-tune the functionality and access levels in your system. Below is a detailed walkthrough of each configuration setting.

Referral Types and Source Tracking directly influence detailed income analysis.
Third-party Payers and Services/Inventory can be centrally managed or delegated per location.
Moderation features ensure admin oversight for all service and inventory changes.
Discrepancy and Inactive Settings provide operational visibility and accountability across the clinic network.

π Conclusion
The System Configuration tab serves as the nerve center for managing permissions, feature availability, and data control across your ChiroHD environment. These options allow organizations to maintain consistency, enforce compliance, and ensure quality across all locations while retaining the flexibility needed for location-specific operations. Be sure to tailor these settings based on your networkβs operational structure and goals.
