# Introduction (https://docs.carlio.app/docs/settings)

The personal and organization settings of the dealership



Settings holds the personal preferences of each team member and the configuration of the dealership. Opening **Settings** replaces the dashboard menu with the settings menu.

## Open the settings [#open-the-settings]

Select **[Settings](https://carlio.app/dashboard/settings)** in the sidebar. The dashboard opens the first section that the signed-in team member may use. The **Profile** section also opens from the user menu.

The settings menu lists only the sections that the signed-in team member may open. A section that is missing from the menu requires a different role or permission.

## Roles [#roles]

The dashboard has three roles. The owner is the person who created the dealership. A manager runs the team and the daily work. A staff member works on tasks and has the fewest permissions by default. The [permissions guide](/docs/settings/permissions) lists the defaults and the changes that the owner can make.
