Updating Your Profile
What this feature does
Your profile page lets you personalize your account by updating your personal information including your name, email address, phone number, and profile photo. These details appear throughout the dashboard and help identify you to other team members who may be working with you. Keeping your profile current ensures that important notifications reach you and that your colleagues can easily recognize you in the system.
Who it is for
This feature is for every user of the Servinn Admin Dashboard - whether you're a business owner, manager, or staff member. Anyone with an account can update their own profile information at any time. This is particularly useful when your contact information changes, you want to add a professional photo, or you need to correct any details that were entered incorrectly during initial setup.
When to use it
You should update your profile whenever your personal information changes. Common situations include:
When you first log in: Add a profile photo and verify your contact details are correct
After changing your phone number: Update your number so you don't miss important text notifications about orders or payments
When you get a new email address: Ensure password reset links and business updates reach your current inbox
If your name was misspelled: Correct any errors so team members and reports display your name properly
When joining a new team: Add a clear profile photo to help new colleagues recognize you
Key concepts
Profile Photo: This is the image that appears next to your name throughout the dashboard. You can upload any image from your device, and the system will automatically resize and optimize it. If you don't upload a photo, the system displays your initials in a colored circle instead.
Contact Information: Your email and phone number are used for important notifications about your business. The email address is also used to sign in to your account and recover your password if you forget it.
Name Fields: Your first and last name appear on reports, in team lists, and anywhere your account activity is tracked. These help identify who performed specific actions in the system.
Profile Updates: Changes to your profile information take effect immediately after you save them. You'll see a confirmation message when your update is successful.
Common questions
Can I change my email address if I use it to sign in?
Yes, you can update your email address at any time. Once saved, you'll use your new email address for all future sign-ins. Just make sure you have access to the new email in case you need to recover your password later.
What image formats are supported for profile photos?
You can upload most common image formats including JPG, PNG, and WEBP files. The system automatically converts and optimizes your photo to ensure it loads quickly throughout the dashboard. For best results, use a square image with your face clearly visible.
Will other team members see my updated profile immediately?
Yes, profile changes appear instantly across the dashboard. If another team member is currently viewing a page that displays your information, they may need to refresh their browser to see the latest updates.
What happens if I don't add a profile photo?
Your account will still work perfectly without a photo. The system displays your initials (the first letter of your first and last name) in a colored circle wherever your profile picture would normally appear. This is a great default, but adding a real photo helps team members recognize you more easily.
