# Configure checkout and order settings

Source: https://www.goodbarber.com/help/shop/manage-your-checkout-process-r130/configure-checkout-and-order-settings-a424/

The creation of an account for the order process can be optional or required.
To set this up:

1. Click "Checkout Process " in the menu **Settings > Order Process**

2. Select the option desired:

- "**Account optional**" : Your clients can order with a client account or as guests. As guests, they will have to manually enter all the required informations as the boxes will not be pre-filled.
*Note: when an order is placed as a guest, it will be available in the menu "Order" but it will not be linked to a client file.*

- " **Account required"**: clients will only be able to order after creating an account. They must or login or create an account. With this option, their address will already be pre-filled.

3. Click the green "**Save"** button
