Overview
The Account Settings page is the central place to configure your Beeswax account. It is only visible when viewing your own business — the business that owns your Beeswax account.
From here you can manage:
- Account Details — Company name, logo, address, business hours, and timezone
- Plan Limits — Current usage against your subscription limits
- Theme — Invoice and quote appearance
- Accounting Preferences — Reporting basis, tax periods, financial year, and next numbers
- Project Statuses — Custom statuses for tracking project stages
- Terminology — Rename "Projects" and "Quotes" to suit your industry (Jobs, Cases, Matters, Estimates, and more)
- NAS Storage — Connect your own file storage
- AI Processing — Automatic expense creation from forwarded invoices
- Hive Profile — Your public Beeswax Showcase listing
- API Tokens — External application access
Note: Only Account Owners, Super Admins and Accountants can access this page. Managers, Basic users and Clients are redirected to the dashboard.
