Configuration

Configuration files are files that can augment / improve the control you have over the functionality in the form beyond the settings. For the Discounts and exemptions form, there are two files.

Configuration files are generally in XML format and so please ensure the XML file is still valid when you finish your edits. You can check an XML file is valid using the following:
