# Setup checklist

Set up the app manually by following these steps in order. Set your defaults _before_ adding products so every dress you import picks them up.

1. **Settings → General**: store profile, policies and holiday mode. [Guide](https://thedressrentalapp.com/docs/general)
2. **Settings → Rental**: calendar window, variant labels, bonds, cleaning fees, inventory and cart rules. [Guide](https://thedressrentalapp.com/docs/rental)
3. **Settings → Delivery**: delivery methods, date labels, lead times and buffers. [Guide](https://thedressrentalapp.com/docs/delivery)
4. **Settings → Bookings**: manual booking rules, late fees and disputes. [Guide](https://thedressrentalapp.com/docs/booking-settings)
5. **Settings → Notifications**: sender details and email templates. [Guide](https://thedressrentalapp.com/docs/notifications)
6. **Booking Fields & Add Ons**: the fields customers fill in, plus insurance and upsells. [Guide](https://thedressrentalapp.com/docs/booking-fields)
7. **Add rental products** manually, in bulk or automatically. [Guide](https://thedressrentalapp.com/docs/import)
8. **Add the rental calendar** to your theme. [Guide](https://thedressrentalapp.com/docs/widget)
9. **Test the full booking flow**: choose dates on a product, add to cart, check out, and confirm the booking appears in **Bookings**.
