# SP-MIS installation
**OpenSPP SPMIS Base / spp_base_spmis (available from 17.0.1.4)**
The OpenSPP Social Protection Management Information System ({doc}`OpenSPP SP-MIS <../overview/products/sp_mis>`) configuration provides comprehensive functionality for managing social protection programs. This setup is ideal for organizations running cash transfers, social assistance programs, or humanitarian interventions.
**What's included:**
- Registry management for individuals and groups
- Program cycles and beneficiary enrollment
- Eligibility determination and targeting
- Entitlement calculation and management
- Payment processing integration
**Installation steps:**
1. Navigate to the **Apps** menu.
2. In the Apps menu, search for {doc}`spp_base_spmis ` or "OpenSPP SPMIS Base"
3. Click the **Activate** button to install the module. This will also install all its dependencies, providing a complete SP-MIS foundation.
4. Restart OpenSPP after installing the module:
```bash
sudo systemctl restart openspp
```
**Note**: The `queue_job` module, which is essential for asynchronous background tasks, is automatically installed as a dependency of the main OpenSPP modules. It is also pre-configured as a `server_wide_module`, ensuring that background workers can process jobs correctly after a service restart.
Once installed, you will see the "Registry" application in your Odoo dashboard, which is the main entry point for the OpenSPP system.
