# Minors Maximum Age and Signing Minimum Age Configuration

**Overview**

Resova validates waiver eligibility based on two settings:

- **Signing Minimum Age** – The age at which a guest must complete their own waiver as an adult.
- **Minors Maximum Age** – The oldest age considered a minor.

These settings work together to define the age ranges for minors and adults. Configuring them correctly helps ensure guests complete the appropriate waiver.

---

**Why this matters**

If **Signing Minimum Age** is set to **18**, then **Minors Maximum Age** should be set to **17**.

Setting both values to **18** can create age validation issues during the waiver process. To avoid this, configure the maximum minor age to **17** whenever the signing minimum age is **18**.

---

**Recommended Configuration**

| **Setting** | **Value** |
| --- | --- |
| Signing Minimum Age | 18 |
| Minors Maximum Age | 17 |

This configuration ensures:

- Guests **17 years old and younger** are treated as minors.
- Guests become adults on their **18th birthday**.
- Waivers can be completed successfully without validation issues.

---

**How Age Validation Works**

Age validation follows a simple rule:

- A guest remains a **minor through the last day they are 17 years old**.
- Beginning on their **18th birthday**, they are considered an adult and must complete their own waiver.

---

**How to Update These Settings**

Navigate to:

**Settings → General Settings → Waivers**

Verify the following values:

- **Signing Minimum Age:** 18
- **Minors Maximum Age:** 17

Save your changes.

---

**Recent Update**

Resova now helps prevent invalid configurations by enforcing the relationship between these settings.

If **Signing Minimum Age** is **18**, the **Minors Maximum Age** field can no longer be set to **18**. The highest selectable value will be **17**, helping ensure the waiver age ranges are configured correctly.

---

**Frequently Asked Questions**

**Why can't I select 18 as the maximum minor age anymore?**

This is expected behavior. When the **Signing Minimum Age** is **18**, the highest allowed **Minors Maximum Age** is **17** to ensure the waiver age ranges are configured correctly.

---

**What if my account is already configured with a Minors Maximum Age of 18?**

If your **Signing Minimum Age** is also **18**, update the **Minors Maximum Age** to **17**. Future updates to these settings will continue to enforce this relationship.
