This text is a reference. What types of text are there?
Introduction
The My Profile area in Leadtime allows you to manage your personal data and work-related information independently. This area is specially designed for employees and offers a clear structure for keeping track of important information such as vacations, sick notes or overtime.
You can access the My Profile area via your profile picture in the top right-hand corner of the application. As soon as you click on it, the menu opens and you are taken to your personal profile. The section is divided into six different tabs, which are explained in detail below.
Account tab
In the Account tab, you can make basic settings for your profile:
Avatar
Here you have the option of uploading a personal profile picture to increase your visibility and recognition in the system. Click on the "Upload file" button and select a suitable picture.
Language
The language of the application can be changed here. Choose between the available options German or English.
Workspace color
Each user can choose from nine predefined color schemes for their account, which are shown to their best advantage in both light and dark mode. The following colors are available:
Standard (Leadtime Pink), Black, Red, Pink, Orange, Green, Blue, Yellow, Purple
Note: A default color can be set in the workspace settings, which applies if the user has not selected their own color.

Personal data
The Personal data section in the "My profile" tab is used to manage your basic personal information and your bank details. Here you can keep your contact details up to date and ensure that important details are stored correctly in the system. The interface is clearly structured and divided into two main sections:
