# Understanding the preferences page

# Admin Preferences
In preferences you can restrict activity of owners, change product names and if you have super administrator privileges you can control some of the things your administrators can do.

* A - Allow administrators to edit template structures means you can allow your administrators and clients owners to change the column settings. **We recommend that you keep these disabled to ensure all your assessments, enquiries or plans are using consistent column types and headings.**.  Once enabled you will see a Grid Settings button appear on your assessment, enquiry or plan template page.  Just click on this and add the additional columns or change the headings to suit your needs.

* B - Enabling this will allow owners and administrators to disable groups of questions in Evaluate.
* C - Enable Quality Calendar allows you to share the calendar with all users apart from any third-party organisations.  If you want to also share this with your third-party organisations just turn on the button names 'Enable Quality Calendar for Third-party Organisations)
* D - Set your calendar view by adding  your start month and day.  For example, if your quality cycle starts on the 1st August then you will set this as Month **Aug**, Day **1**

# Permission Preferences by Role

If you don't want particular roles to be used you can switch these off so that owners cannot invite them.  For example, I don't want to use the moderator feature therefore I have switched this off in the screenshot below.
