Personal Settings (Einstellungen)
Einstellungen (/einstellungen) is your personal configuration area. It is separate from Verwaltung, which is for firm-wide admin setup.
Profile
Update:
- Display name and contact details
- Professional title and signature block fields used in correspondence
- Avatar (upload and crop)
Changes here affect how you appear on outgoing mail and internal assignments.
Security
Change password
Use a strong unique password. Your firm may enforce rotation policies.
Enable 2FA
Turn on two-factor authentication (TOTP or firm-supported methods) for account protection.
Review active sessions
Sign out unused sessions if your firm exposes session management.
If you lose access to your 2FA device, contact your administrator — self-recovery depends on firm policy.
Notifications
Configure which events send:
- In-app notifications
- Email digests
- Push notifications (if mobile devices are registered)
Per-channel toggles may include Frist reminders, Postmappe assignments, approval requests, and mention alerts.
Appearance
Choose theme (light/dark/system) and density preferences where available. Theme is per user and does not affect other team members.
Mailbox and calendar preferences
Some tenants expose:
- Default send mailbox for outbound email
- Calendar working hours and scheduling preferences
- iCal feed tokens for subscribing in Outlook/Google
Options depend on what your administrator has enabled.
