Overview of global settings

Introduction

Global settings provide a centralized approach for admins to manage organization-wide configurations, streamline administrative tasks, reduce manual effort, and ensure consistency across the platform.

Changes made here apply to the entire organization, helping admins to:

• Align with organizational policies
• Enhance administrative efficiency
• Ensure a cohesive and secure environment

Admins can configure settings such as password policy, time zone, language preferences, custom employee fields, login screen branding, and color themes.
