When processing a sites data several configuration settings are referenced.  These settings apply to all data for a particular site and affect the report results.  The selections should take into consideration how the source system capabilities, the way the site uses the system, the expected usage of the report results, as well as other factors.

A partner will usually want to select a default value for these settings for all of their sites and let Clinigence know if any sites will vary from these defaults.  In the absence of a partner default setting the system will use Clinigence system default settings.
