Tracking

Tracking-related defaults — what is recorded, what reports are exposed, time computation rules.

Access these settings under Administration > Configuration settings > Tracking. This category contains 10 settings, listed below with the title and comment shipped in the platform's settings fixtures (SettingsCurrentFixtures.php).

The variable name in code is shown in monospace. Use it when scripting via the API or when you need to change those settings at a global level by editing config/settings_override.yaml.
