Main settings reference for Association management on EKKOU

This document lists all configuration settings and options used across the EKKOU platform. These options allow administrators to tailor system behavior at various hierarchical levels.

The list below is organized by precedence order (from Association level down to specific Contribution occurrences).

1. Association Level

This is the highest level in the hierarchy. These parameters act as global defaults for the entire association.

Setting	Description
Association Active	Indicates if the association is currently enabled in the EKKOU system.
Billing Enabled	Determines if platform subscription/billing is active for this association.
Flat-Rate Billing	Indicates if the association is using a flat-rate billing model.
Security Level	Security setting (e.g., requires dual validation for certain actions).
Review Reports	Indicates if generated reports require manual review before publishing.
Loans Management	Activates the Loans management module.
Delay Management	Activates management for payment delays / deadline extensions.
Waiting Period (Carence)	Activates the waiting period policy module for new members.
Individual Lending	Allows lending funds directly to single members.
Member Directory	Displays the member directory to all associated members via the app.
Location Check-In	Enforces location limits (geolocation/QR) to log meeting attendance.
Check-In Validation Time	Uses a strict time window validation for answering roll calls.
Attendance Notification	Sends attendance confirmations to users upon checking in.
Public Directory Listing	Allows the association to be public in the platform's discovery directory.
Direct Registration	Allows link-based direct registrations without explicit invites.
Automate Contribution Payment	Automates contribution fulfillment directly after online payments.
Birthday Notifications	Enables birthday wishing features and notifications for members.
Cycle Automation	Activates manual or automatic triggers for launching contribution cycles.
Unpaid Reminders	Enables automated recurring reminders for unpaid debts.
New Member Alert	Alerts administrators whenever a new member successfully joins.
Public Member Alert	Alerts admins when someone joins via the public discovery portal.
Multi-Device Login	Allows parallel multi-device sessions for a single account.
Member Password Login	Allows members to sign in with a password instead of a code or auto-login link.
Single-Device Login	Forces a single active session per member and revokes other devices.
Account Relationship	Enables cross-login/reciprocal member management (managing another's account).
Benefit Waiting Period	Defines how many days a new member must wait before becoming eligible for benefits.
Future Contributions	Displays non-due, future contributions on member dashboards.
Warning and Member Validity	Enables the validity policy based on grace period and the warning / app-access limitation thresholds. When exclusion restricts the portal, the member keeps access to admin messaging only, and the restricted member screen reuses the main home card with the same rotating color variations for visual continuity.
External Payment Links	Lets the association publish its own external payment links to redirect members.
Show Contributor List	Main default: Are contributor lists visible to members? (Can be overridden)
Show Paid Amounts	Main default: Are individual paid amounts visible in those lists? (Can be overridden)

2. Member Category Level

Settings at the category level apply jointly to all members assigned to this category, unless overridden at the individual member level.

Setting	Description
Sponsored/Honorary	Indicates whether the category is for sponsored/honorary members exempt from certain fees.
Pay for Dependents	Do members in this category pay fees on behalf of their dependants?
Open Category	Is this category publicly "open" and selectable for standard direct registrations?

3. Member Level

Specific settings tied directly to an individual. These usually supersede category settings.

Setting	Description
Member Status	Denotes an active profile or a suspended/inactive one.
Group Leader	Identifies if this member is a family/group coordinator within the association.
Sponsored Individual	Flag indicating an individually sponsored member (e.g. scholarship).
Pay for Dependents	Exception flag explicitly requiring this individual to pay for related accounts.
Open Account	Allows to link further user profiles/dependants to this member's scope.

4. Contribution Model Level (Type)

This level defines the default behaviors that will be applied whenever a new instance of this "Contribution Formula" is generated.

Setting	Description

Apply to Dependents	Whether this type of contribution applies a scaling multiplier for dependents.
Show Contributor List	Overrides (Yes/No) the global contributor list visibility, or Inherits.

Loan Reimbursement	Marks this specific contribution as being a loan reimbursement tracker.
