The Settings section is one of the most essential components of the Datatruck platform. It plays a key role in configuring your account, managing users, setting up integrations, and enabling various operational features. Whether you are an administrator or a user with assigned permissions, the Settings module helps customize the system to match your fleet’s workflow.

1. Where to Find the Settings Section

The Settings section is located as the last option in the left dashboard sidebar. Its placement ensures easy access while keeping critical administrative tools organized and separate from everyday operational activities.

2. Who Has Access to Settings?

By default, Super Admins and Admins have full access to the Settings section. These roles can configure account-level settings that impact the entire organization.

However, Datatruck offers flexibility.
If admins wish to grant Settings access to additional users, they can do so via:

Settings > User Management

From there, administrators can:

• Assign roles

• Update permissions

• Grant or restrict access to configuration tools

This ensures that your team members only have access to the features they truly need.
