Company Details	This will be set by Journease Staff before release, however should any changes be made to your companies details here is where you can make them. The Tickboxes (Docs) along the side, when ticked, will include these details on documents used in Journease, e.g. Invoices, Reports etc
J' Community / Internet settings	this is where we set up the server details that link you to the Journease Community, allowing Journease to connect to the community via the internet will ensure that your posted jobs can be seen by other community members and that Journease can alert you when new job opportunities arrive.
Profile	Here we can set your company's Working Time Directive - hours of business, Average Driving Day - length of driving for your drivers before they require a rest period, and average stoppage times allowed at Collection/Delivery, and Vehicles (Journease Professional and above) - Number of days warning of impending actions, number of miles warning of impending service and how to group vehicles.
E-Mail Defaults	The three tabs in this section allow you to enter the standard text that will be used in Emails for Collection, Delivery and Tracking, and to select what information will be included in the Email.
Accounts	This is where we set up the information for the Accounts Package that your company uses, e.g. Sage, Xero, Quickbooks.
