Appliance wide settings for legal practices. Covers Firm, Matters, Time Billings, Budge, General and Licensing.
Please note not all users will be able to view appliance settings, only those with specific higher-end roles and rights enabled. To allow a user access to appliance settings make sure their current rights include 'View Appliance Settings' and/or 'Edit Appliance Settings'. Difference between settings and tools?!
To access appliance settings select the settings icon (the grey cog) from the top menu bar. From the settings screen, select 'Appliance Settings'.

'Manage Matter Types' allows users to view, edit, and add matter types.
Time
In the time drop down menu the firm can nominate how many minutes per unit.
Firms have been known to use 1 minute units, 6 minute units, 10 minute units and 15 minute units. At Wise Owl Legal we strongly recommend using 6 minute units, unless there is a good reason to use otherwise. Whilst 6 minute units may seem confusing at first, once it is understood it is extremely practical.
| Units | Minutes |
|---|---|
| 1 | 6 |
| 2 | 12 |
| 3 | 18 |
| 4 | 24 |
| 5 | 30 |
| 6 | 36 |
| 7 | 42 |
| 8 | 48 |
