# Finding your way around Settings

> How Settings is laid out, what each section holds, and which help article covers the sections that have their own.

*This article is being updated.*

To open Settings, select your account menu at the top right and choose **Settings**. Settings replaces the sidebar with its own list of sections. **Back to Prevarro** at the top of that list takes you back to your modules.

The sections are grouped by who they belong to: **You**, **Workspace** and **Account**. You only see the sections your role allows, so your list may be shorter than a colleague's. Settings opens on the first section you can see.

## You

These sections are about you rather than your business.

- **Profile** - how you appear to your team: your photo, name and other details. **Employment** shows, read-only, what has been set up about you in Settings → Users, such as your **Role** and **Reports to**. **Weekly hours** holds the hours you're available each day. Choose **Set my own hours**, or **Use workspace hours** to go back to your business's hours.
- **Preferences** - your **Start page**, which is where Prevarro opens when you sign in (a module, or **Where I left off**), and **Notifications**, where you choose which kinds of notification also reach you by **Email** or **SMS**. Your inbox in Prevarro always gets them, and **Account & billing** and **Security** emails are always sent. SMS opens once your business has switched SMS sending on and your mobile number, starting with + and its country code, is in your **Profile**. **Quiet hours** apply to SMS only, between the times you choose. Email is never held.
- **Calendar & Email** - **Email capture**, an address you BCC on emails you send so Prevarro logs them against your contacts. Select **Choose an address** to set yours up, then **Copy** it into your email program. This section also holds your **Email signature** and your **Personal calendar feed (iCal)**.
- **Security** - how you sign in and the devices you're signed in on. See Signing in and keeping your account secure.
- **Share Prevarro** - if your role doesn't manage Users, your own link to share Prevarro with another business owner, and **Become a Partner**, which opens Prevarro Partners. If it does, you'll find Refer & Save under Account instead.
- **Approval delegation** - who approves on your behalf while you're away. See Approvals.

## Workspace

These sections set up your business. Most people only see some of them.

- **General** - your **Business identity**, such as your logo, brand colour and the details on your customer documents, plus **Locale & financial year**, **Tax rates**, **Employment on-costs**, your **Workspace email signature**, and the **Security policy** an owner sets (see Signing in and keeping your account secure). It also holds:
  - **Support access**, where the owner lets Prevarro support see what it needs to help, for a time they choose, and finds the **Support PIN** to quote when contacting support. See Getting help in Prevarro.
  - **Marketing consent**, where you choose the consent rules your marketing messages follow.
  - **Celebrations**, where you choose how the short moments that mark a first, a record or a milestone play: **On**, **Subtle** or **Off**. Each person can still turn them off for themselves with **Moments for me** under **Preferences**.
- **Users** - the people in your business and their invitations. See Inviting your team.
- **Advisory access** - opens **Advisory access** in **Members**, where you manage the advisors your business shares a read-only view with. See Advising other businesses.
- **Roles & Permissions** - what each role can do. See Roles and permissions.
- **Modules** - which modules appear in your sidebar. See Your business template.
- **Approvals** - who approves what. See Approvals.
- **Notifications** - who in your business receives each notice. The **Internal** card lists each notice with its recipients, which can be roles, people or a person on the record. The **Customer-facing** card lists the notices sent to your customers, and who in your business is alerted beside them. Everyone can see this page, but only someone who can manage automations can change recipients. To switch a customer notice off or change its wording, open it in its automation.
- **Onboarding** - your setup checklist and how far through it you are. If you hid the checklist on Home, **Show the checklist on Home again** brings it back. See Your first 30 minutes.
- **Data** - **Custom Fields** for adding your own fields to records, **Tags** for managing your tag library, and **Imports**. See Importing your data.
- **Integrations** - connections to other services, grouped under **Accounting**, **Communications**, **Video conferencing** and **Developer & data**. For example, Xero sits under Accounting, and your **Custom sending domain** for email sits under Communications. If your role can change integrations, **Phone contacts** lists each person who syncs their phone contacts, and **Stop**, then **Stop** again to confirm, ends one person's sync.
- **Portals** - what your customers and suppliers can see and do in their portals, under **Customer portal** and **Supplier portal**.

## Account

These sections cover your business's own Prevarro account.

- **Plan & Billing** - your plan, your card and your invoices. See Your plan and free trial, Seats on your plan, and Your card, invoices and billing details.
- **Storage & Usage** - the **Storage** tab shows how much space your files use, by type. **Messaging & API** charts your metered sending month by month.
- **Refer & Save** - **Your referral link** to share with other business owners, a box to **Send invitations by email**, and **How Refer & Save works**. If you're a Prevarro partner, this section is **Partner Centre** instead: your partner link, its QR code, invitations and the businesses that signed up through you.

## If a section is missing

Sections are hidden, not greyed out, when your role doesn't include them. If you need one you can't see, ask whoever manages your business's roles.
