Getting **profile and company settings** right early saves confusion later. In **Jestor**, that covers your personal profile, the organization's identity including a custom subdomain, and the notification preferences that determine what reaches you.

## Why these settings are skipped and then regretted

Configuration screens get visited once, during setup, when nobody yet knows which settings will matter. The organization name stays as whatever was typed in a hurry, and notifications remain at their defaults.

Six months later the company has a system that does not look like theirs, and a team that has stopped reading notifications because there are too many.

What is worth configuring deliberately:

- The name and photo colleagues will see beside every action
- The organization's logo and name, visible to everyone
- A custom subdomain, so the address reflects the company
- Notification preferences, before they become noise

## What sits in each area

| Area             | What it holds                 | Who it affects                     |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| Profile          | Photo, display name and email | How colleagues see you             |
| Personal details | Name, phone, password reset   | You alone                          |
| Company          | Logo, name, organization ID   | Everyone in the environment        |
| Subdomain        | A custom address              | Everyone, including external users |
| Notifications    | What you are told about       | Your daily attention               |

## Step by step to configure them

1. **Open your account menu** and go to settings.
2. **Complete your profile**, including the photo and the display name colleagues will see.
3. **Set your contact details**, and reset your password if it was shared during setup.
4. **Open the company section** and upload the logo and company name.
5. **Generate the custom subdomain**, so the address reflects your organization.
6. **Review notification preferences** before the volume becomes unmanageable.

## Why notification settings deserve real attention

Notification fatigue is the most reliable way to lose the value of a system. Once people learn that most alerts are irrelevant, they stop reading all of them, including the ones that were not. Configuring this early, while volume is still low, is far easier than reversing the habit later.

- **Profile visible to colleagues:** name and photo attached to every action
- **Company identity applied:** logo and name across the environment
- **Custom subdomain available:** an address that reflects the company
- **Notifications configurable:** attention protected deliberately

## Frequently Asked Questions

In your personal details, inside the profile settings.
