Organisation settings hold everything that applies to your whole team: your name and avatar, the currency and timezone 53° works in, your branding, and the pipelines, tags and automations each area runs on. Set them once and everyone works from the same defaults.
Before you start
Only owners and admins can open organisation settings. If you don't see Manage organisation, ask an owner or admin to make the change. See Members and roles.
Open organisation settings
- Select your organisation's name at the top of the sidebar.
- Choose Manage organisation.
The settings open on General. Use the list on the left to move between sections. You can also open any section from the command palette: press ⌘K on Mac, or Ctrl+K on Windows, and type "Organisation:" followed by the section name, for example Organisation: Members.
Change your name, avatar and regional defaults
In General:
- To change the avatar, choose Upload avatar (or Change avatar) and pick a JPG or PNG up to 2MB. It saves as soon as it uploads.
- Edit Name and Slug if you need to.
- Choose your Industry. It's required.
- Set Country, Timezone, Currency and First day of week.
- Choose Save changes.
What the regional defaults do:
- Currency is the one currency your organisation works in. Deal values, proposal totals and reports all use it.
- Timezone decides when "today" starts and ends for your organisation, for example for scheduled notifications.
- First day of week sets where weeks start in date pickers, the project calendar and reports.
New organisations start with the United Kingdom, Europe/London, GBP and Monday.
Set your branding
Branding holds your organisation's look: colours, type and logos. It styles the proposals you send, so a contact sees your brand rather than ours. It doesn't change how 53° looks for your team.
- Open Branding. A live preview sits at the top.
- Work through the tabs:
- Colours: your Primary colour and Secondary colour, and a palette of greys.
- Type: the fonts for Headings, Body and Monospace.
- Interface: Corner radius, Density and Elevation.
- Assets: a Logo for light backgrounds, a Logo for dark backgrounds and a Favicon. Logos can be PNG, JPG, WEBP or SVG, up to 4MB. Assets save as soon as they upload.
- Details: a Company description, your Email address and Phone number, links to your Terms of business and Privacy policy, and your Website and social profiles.
- Choose Save branding.
Settings for each area
Under Settings in the left-hand list, each area of 53° has its own section:
| Section | What you can set |
|---|---|
| Tasks | The task Pipeline and Tags |
| Projects | The project Pipeline and Tags |
| Docs | Doc Tags |
| Files | File Tags |
| Contacts | Contact Sources, Tags and Automations |
| Deals | The deal Pipeline, Tags, Lost reasons and Automations |
| Proposals | Proposal Automations, and Defaults such as the project on signing |
For more on each, see Pipelines and stages, Tags, Automations and Contacts overview.
Good to know
- Changing the Slug changes the web address of the proposals you've already sent, so links in those emails stop working. Change it before you start sending proposals, or resend any that are still open.
- Billing is where owners and admins manage the plan, usage and invoices. See Plans and billing.
- Integrations in organisation settings is where owners and admins set up your organisation's email addresses and marketing email. See Set up email addresses. Google and Microsoft connections are made from your own account settings. See Integrations.
- Changes to your settings and branding show in the activity log.
