Your personal settings in DPO allow you to manage your own user information directly. This includes your profile details, password, notification preferences, language and currency settings, and even the option to request account deletion. Many users assume that only the book administrator can make changes to names, passwords, or email notifications. In DPO, however, personal information is only accessible to the individual user once that user has been added to a DPO book.
Access your profile settings
To make changes to your personal information, click the profile icon at the bottom of the left-hand panel and select Profile. On this screen, you can upload a profile picture, change your name, and add company information and phone numbers.
Below the profile details, you can also update your password. This gives each user direct control over their own login and profile information.
Manage your email notifications
If you select Settings from the menu on the left-hand side, you can adjust your email notification preferences. Here, you can decide whether you want to receive emails whenever a Purchase Order, invoice, or expense is waiting for your approval.
You can also choose additional notification settings for specific Purchase Order events. These options help you stay informed about important status changes in DPO.
Receive notifications when Purchase Orders you created become fully approved
Receive notifications when approved Purchase Orders become visible if they were initially hidden
Receive notifications when a Purchase Order changes its status to Closed
Receive notifications when the rental duration of an item expires
Stay informed about comments
DPO also allows you to receive notifications when someone adds comments to your own Purchase Orders, invoices, or expenses within your approval chain. This helps you stay up to date on communication related to your own documents and processes.
Change your language or currency settings
If you are working internationally, you can also adjust your preferred language or currency settings. This allows you to personalize your DPO experience according to your working environment and regional requirements.
Request account deletion
If you no longer need your DPO account, you can request the deletion of your personal information. To do this, click Delete Account and confirm the action by clicking the red button.
Keep your personal settings up to date
Managing your personal settings in DPO helps you keep your user profile accurate and your notification preferences aligned with your daily work. It also gives you direct control over how you receive updates and how your account information is maintained.
