Page Sections

General Settings

This section contains regional and communication preferences that apply across the entire platform.

  • Default Date Formatting: A searchable dropdown field to select your preferred date and time display format (for example, "English (India)" or "English (US)").
  • Default Language: A searchable dropdown field to select your preferred interface language. Languages are listed with their corresponding national flags and standard abbreviations (such as "EN" for English).

Tips

  • Keep Timezones Accurate: Always ensure your default timezone matches your physical location so that course deadlines and scheduled training sessions do not display with confusing time offsets.
  • Optimize Your Login Flow: If you hold multiple roles but spend 90% of your time performing checklist operations, set your Default Dashboard to "Checklist Operator" to save yourself navigation clicks every time you log in.
  • Don't Forget to Save: Any changes made to your preferences will not take effect until you click the blue Save button located in the top-right corner of the page.
