Explore the Setup Section in Pabau 2

Most of the changes to your Pabau account are done through the Setup section - this remains true throughout Pabau Classic and Pabau 2. 


What's different about Pabau 2 is how simple it is to navigate. We've done a lot of work to make the Setup section more intuitive so that you can get to where you need to much quicker.

In Pabau Classic, you need to click between multiple tabs. With Pabau 2, all the main setup features have been added to one screen so you can see everything you need at a glance. This also reduces the number of clicks required.

We've also improved the placement - the Setup button is now positioned alongside the other main features in the left sidebar, so it's easy to find when you need it.

At the very top of the Setup section are buttons that navigate you to various resources, such as our blog, our community forum, the Pabau Academy, and the Pabau Knowledge Base

The Community Forum allows you to share your feedback and ideas about Pabau 2's features, and read the latest release notes.
