Domain preferences
Domain preferences are the settings that determine the default behavior of different aspects of the web application as well as the authentication methods used for domain logins. Your domain users will, in many cases, be able to personalize their user settings and override the domain's default settings you define here.
To review and modify any of these settings, go to Preferences in the navigation pane, then select the Account Preferences tab.
