overridable

Able to override

Overridable describes something that can be superseded or replaced by a higher authority or alternative setting.

In computing, an overridable method or setting can be modified by subclasses or user preferences: The default timeout is overridable in the config file.

Outside technical contexts, overridable suggests a decision or rule that isn't final: The committee's recommendation is overridable by the board.
