# Enable a Business Location as Default

## Overview

This article shows you how to set a specific business location as your default in the Core Hapana platform. Setting a default location ensures your most-used venue loads first, saving time and reducing errors during daily operations.

## Prerequisites

- You must have access to a Core Hapana account with admin or profile-editing permissions for your location setup.
- The client should have an active package on that location.
- The Client Membership Package should not be in suspension Mode
- The ‘isDefault?’ toggle should be enabled where the client purchases the package.
