Your Account Settings is where you'll update all the global settings, admin information, templates, and bookkeeping items. Basically, if there is anything you need to update outside of a contacts information or specific project information, you'll need to go to your Account Settings to do so. 

You can quickly access your Account Settings by clicking the gear icon located on the top right of your account. This is available on any page within 17hats.

Your Account Setting pages are organized into four categories - Settings, Admin, Account Templates, and Money Matters and include various elements you can review and adjust as needed.
