Hello Joseph,
Regarding Configuration part I can tell you based on the scenario you are going to implement for your client. Also regarding above configuration I can tell you to follow this below document as I hope most of the users go with this document

Also , it depends upon the business function which you activate its nothing like default in SRM. You have to activate the business function as per your requirement.
Thanks
Gaurav Gautam
