Personal and Contact Details

• Your initials are shown in the top menu bar, to the right of the settings icon. This allows users to quickly identify who is logged in. 

• Wise Owl Legal currently only supports English, however has the options of various English speaking countries.

General Preferences

• Changing the page size for both desktop and mobile is useful to maximise the functionality and usability of Wise Owl Legal. 

• The tutorial can be turned off once you have become familiar with Wise Owl Legal. If you wish to view it at a later time, it can always be accessed by selecting the 'Welcome' button located on the footer of the page.

• The page load times display at the top corner of every page. They show the time it takes for a particular page or field to load. It may be beneficial to turn off page load times to minimise distractions unless, your firm is monitoring internet speed etc. Please note that the page load times may slightly cover some Wise Owl Legal error messages. 

Security and Permissions

• This is where users may change their password (if they have that right enabled) 
  

•  A list of the role(s) and rights the user has is displayed here

Time Billing

• Changing the time units here will affect the the units which display on the time sheet register and also the default units when entering time entries 

• Do not use appliance settings -> time billing to change a users time billing rate as this will only change the time billing default settings of future users.
