Overview

Account settings allows you to change settings for all users in your account. You can also lock settings on off to prevent users from changing them.

The account settings mirror the settings available for groups and for individual users. If not locked for the account or group, they can be adjusted by the individual user. This allows you to customize tiered settings.
