# Where each setting lives

> Every setting you can change in SourceDock and the Chrome extension: where to click and what it changes.

## In short

Most settings live in one place: click your picture at the end of the bar, then **Account** > **Features**. The extension's **Account** tab holds the same profit settings, so a change in one shows in the other. A few settings sit on their own page, like Vault filters or a Reviews campaign.

Say you pay \$0.50 to prep each item. Type 0.50 in **Prep per item** once. The Vault, the extension and AlphaChaser all use it from then on.

![Profit calculator, Used by the Vault and the extension: Used in Vault, Extension, AlphaChaser. COSTS: Prep per item \$0.00, Inbound shipping per lb \$0.00, FBM shipping cost (per unit) not set, Sales tax on cost (%) 0, Inbound placement Minimal shipment splits.](https://mintcdn.com/sourcedock/xpWU-kG_EW6IO2H_/images/deep-dives/settings-map/01-profit-settings.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=xpWU-kG_EW6IO2H_\&q=85\&s=3e8f17da45876b594d68ae68a7042161)
