  • Language

  • Date & time

While on your My Profile page, you can also:

  • View your personal data and Enterprise Fax Portal account information, including:

    • Your username

    • Your first and last names

    • Your email address

    • Any roles assigned to you by your fax portal administrator

📌 Tenant and user preferences

Certain settings, including language, date & time, fax number format, and paper format, are set at the tenant level and apply to all faxboxes within your organization. However, you can personalize your own preferences for language, date & time, and fax number format under your My Profile page. Your changes will override the tenant defaults for your individual account.
