Settings

The Settings tab in Manager.io enables you to customize various aspects of your business, from overall business details down to specific transaction behaviors. The options within this tab allow fine-tuning of functionalities used across the application.

To simplify navigation, the Settings tab screen is divided into two sections:

  • Upper part: Displays features currently in use.
  • Lower part: Lists features that have yet to be activated. Clicking any feature from the lower section enables it for immediate use.

For newly established businesses, three sections are active by default:

  • Business Details
  • Chart of Accounts
  • Date & Number Format

Below, you'll find the details of each available setting along with links to individual guides that offer more in-depth explanations.
