The configuration settings are best defined at the start of the project implementation (they can be later updated with a request to support).
For example, at the configuration level is possible to define the Captcha settings and password requirements, enable or disable some functions like “promise to pay” or credit bureau reports collection, configure the frequency of background jobs, etc.
