Religion/Caste/Qualification etc ( Settings )

This is an important topic on how to add Religion/Caste/Qualification etc and configuration.
Your matrimony business may be specific to some Religion/Castes or specific region, so this software does not have any default Religion/Caste etc. You need to add them to settings. For example, there are thousands of different "Qualifications" and many kinds of "Job" so you need to add those to settings.

Please note, you do NOT required to add all Castes/Qualifications/Jobs etc.

You can add any time when required, so PLEASE DO NOT add all Religion/Caste etc which are not required. 

If you add unwanted data in settings, the software will perform very badly, keep this in mind.

For example, if a new customer comes to you whose "Job" is 'Carpenter', at that time you can add this 'Carpenter' Job to settings. 

Otherwise don't add all kinds of 'Jobs' in the world.

Also, this is same for Religion/Caste/Qualification/Job/State/District etc.

Settings Menu :  You need to configure System Settings. It depends on how this application runs. As these are Settings secured and protect from authorized changes to application. You need to provide the same password as user logged in.

Enter the User Login Password, to Add/Modify/Delete System Settings.

Please note you cannot delete system setting if that setting is used by some profile in database.

Add: You need add these entries here, so that they will be available in application.  

Modify: You can modify the names at any time. 

Delete: You can delete any entry if that is not used by any membership. 

IMPORTANT POINTS:  

DO NOT 

1. Don’t create duplicates. For example, B.A and BA. 2. Do not create all entries at one time, instead add only when required. 

Matrimony Application 

Dos 

1. Create only entries which are required. You can add new entries any time. So, don’t create all entries now. Instead create a new entry when a member comes with new item. For example you have created Education as B.A and B.Com, now a new member came his/her education is B.E. Then at that time just create a new entry. This will make you less confusion and more robust application.
