Name, logo and social media
The name and logo appear on the sign-in screen, the top of the page, receipts, reports and the footer.
Fees
Every dropdown also offers $0. To offer more than one amount, separate them with commas (for example 45, 60). Changing a fee only affects impounds from now on; saved impounds keep the amounts they were charged.
Supervisor Review
When on, each impound gets a Supervisor Review button. Supervisors (set in Users) record missing items or approve the impound; everyone else can read it. An impound can’t be given an outcome (released) until a Supervisor approves it, and approved impounds get a gold ✔ on the main list.
Compliance Check
When this is on, Save impound asks for the Compliance Check to be opened once first. Flagged items don’t block saving. Existing impounds never require it.
Owner boxes
Check each Impound type that should open the owner boxes (Owner’s name, address, # and Registered w/ Town?) in the impound window. They also open whenever an owner has already been entered.
Dropdown lists
One entry per line. These fill the dropdowns on the impound form.

The check runs once a day, after the time above, whenever someone has MARS open. The password is stored only on the server, never in the page.
Scheduled report emails
Each row emails a report as a PDF every year on that date, at or after that time. A Quarterly Report covers the most recent quarter that has ended (Q1 Jul–Sep, Q2 Oct–Dec, Q3 Jan–Mar, Q4 Apr–Jun); a Yearly Report covers the most recent fiscal year that has ended (July–June). Uses the sending account above.

Add the usual schedule (4 quarterly + 1 yearly)
Sent by whichever copy of MARS is open first after the time; each one goes out only once. If MARS isn’t open that day, it’s sent the next time it is (up to 30 days late).
NEXGEN import mapping
How NEXGEN Import reads the NEXGEN spreadsheet and fills the MACOR lines. Separate several phrases or codes with commas.

Automatic import
Runs whenever someone has MARS open. A month that was already imported is never overwritten; that file stays in the folder for NEXGEN Import to review.
