# Configuring preferred vaccination method

You can configure the preferred vaccination method while scheduling a vaccination appointment.

As a user with the sn\_vaccine\_sm.admin role, you can choose your preferred vaccination method while scheduling or rescheduling your appointments by setting the **sn\_vaccine\_sm.allow\_user\_selection\_of\_vaccine\_method** system property value to **true**.
