**This article describes WrkLst Classic, the previous interface.** For the current interface, see [Customise General Account Settings](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1767342093-customise-general-account-settings) in the WrkLst 10 documentation.

**A quick run through the general account settings, so WrkLst matches your country and the way you prefer to work.**

## What the general settings control

The general settings are where you adapt WrkLst to your own context — regional conventions on one hand, and personal working preferences on the other. They apply to your account rather than to individual records, so it is worth setting them once, early, before you start entering data in earnest.

## When to revisit them

Most people set these once during onboarding and forget about them. Come back to them if you start working in a new currency or region, if colleagues join and need different defaults, or if your document output needs to change.
