# Settings

Open Settings to manage your profile, your company, sites, users, products, suppliers, tags and data downloads.

Settings hold the configuration behind your planning: your profile, your sites and users, product and supplier parameters, tags, closures and data downloads. Most planners use them to adjust a product, a tag or a closure. Company administrators also manage sites and user access.

**Where it is**: click **Settings** (gear icon) at the bottom of the left sidebar. The **Profile** page opens first.

## How to open a settings page

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Settings pages

The pages follow the order of the settings sidebar.

### General

* [**Profile**](/settings/settings/profile.md): your name, the app language, and where to find the documentation.
* [**Company**](/settings/settings/company.md): your company name and your sales under promotion target.
* [**Sites**](/settings/settings/sites.md): site name, address, delivery days and closures.
* [**Users**](/settings/settings/users.md): user names and the sites each user can access.
* [**Products**](/settings/settings/products.md): product information, suppliers, quotas, forecast and inventory strategies.
* [**Suppliers**](/settings/settings/suppliers.md): supplier constraints and closures.

### Parameters

* [**Tags**](/settings/settings/tags.md): tags and tag categories, order grouping, and family minimum order quantities.
* [**Buffer policy**](/settings/settings/buffer-policy.md): default buffer settings for each inventory strategy.

### Data

* [**Site closures**](/settings/settings/site-closures.md): periods when a site cannot receive goods.
* [**Download data**](/settings/settings/downloads.md): export orders, planning, or demand history and forecasts in XLSX, CSV or TSV.
* **Import data**: load your data files. Only on Flowlity Lite sites, see [Flowlity Lite](/flowlity-lite.md).

## Good to know

* What you see depends on your permissions. For example, **Buffer policy** only appears if you can edit products, and some fields are read-only without administrator rights.
* On supplier collaboration portal sites, Settings shows fewer pages: **Profile**, **Company**, **Sites**, **Users** and **Download data**.
* Some settings, such as a site's currency, can only be changed by Flowlity. Your Customer Success Manager can change them for you.
