# Enable Dispatch Pro: Turnkey Setup

## Overview

Use Turnkey Setup to quickly enable Dispatch Pro using its pre-configured settings and default values. We recommend this if you have technicians who cover one geographical area and can complete all job types. If needed, you can always [adjust Dispatch Pro settings](/v1/docs/dispatch-pro-settings-overview) during or after setup to suit your business needs.
