When a center subscribes to Ark-Site. There are a few steps to setup basic configuration in order to launch the website.

When a Client / Center admin needs to use the subscribed modules on Cockpit, Client role needs to provides consent for AV contract on cockpit.

1.1 How to provide consent on the AV contract
