# System-level user preferences

Administrators can set system-level user preferences. Preferences set at the user level override system-level preferences.

For example, if you set the value for **Receive Notification Email** at the system level to **Yes**, but the user sets the value to **No**, then email notifications for that user are disabled.

## Set system-level user preferences

1. From the application left navigation area, select **Administration**.
2. From the top navigation bar, select **Operation Settings**.
3. From the sub-navigation bar, select **System Settings**.

## Set user-level preferences

Users can set preferences for:

- Email notifications
- Default report templates

### Email notifications

1. At the top right of the application, select the **User** icon.
2. Select the **User** icon again to view the **User Profile**, then select **Preferences**.
3. In **Notifications**, set one or more switches to **YES** to set your email preferences:
  - **Receive Email**
  - **Receive Approval Email**
  - **Receive Routing Email**
  - **Receive Notification Email**.

### Report templates

1. At the top right of the application, select the **User** icon.
2. Select the **User** icon again to view the **User Profile**, then select **Preferences**.
3. In **Report Templates**, from the dropdown, select your preferred report type.
4. Set the **Save Proposal as Attachment** switch to **YES**.
5. Sign out and then sign into the system for the changes to take effect.
