Preferences
In your account view (Found in the upper right menu) you can change some defaults:
Length / Weight unit
You can change which length and weight unit you want to use when displaying and entering lengths and weights. If you are used to imperial units - change the Length unit to "IN" and weight unit to "LB"
Default data length / weight unit
When creating new load lists you have to select which dimension the provided numbers are in. Even though you use for example CM / KG as your length and weight units, you might receive a packing manifest containing data in IN / LB. However, if the layout of the data is always the same, it can be tiresome to select the same dimensions every time - and this is what those settings are for!
Default graphics view
The Default view will determine which perspective you want by default when showing the graphics for a container. Maybe you prefer to see the containers from the side instead?
Hide labels on cargoes
By the default the cargo name will be printed on each cargo. This is sometimes not necessary and a more visually appealing look can be provided by hiding the text
Auto assign colors to consignments
If you have for example 10 item lines that belongs to the same consignment you might whish that all those cargoes has the same colors to easier distinguish different shipments / consignments.
Standard container library
By default, the "Standard" library will be shown when you want to select equipment in a load plan. You can change this here so that only your own equipment will be shown by default
