The look and feel of

Companyname
 is easily customizable, with several default color schemes available. You can switch between the pre-built look and feel schemes in your system by going to Setup > Look and Feel > Power User Interface and choosing a different scheme. Before applying a new scheme universally, you should test it on a team, such as the admin team, in order to ensure that everything appears as expected.

The term "End User" refers to users who access the system through the End User Interface (EUI). We use the expressions "End User" or "Customer" interchangeably in this document to refer to company employees whose main role in the system is to make requests on their own behalf or for someone else.

We use the term "Power User" to indicate the people who are working on other people's issues. They may be solvers, technical support staff, IT staff, approvers, developers, sales reps, managers, or any other types of users who access the system through the power user interface.

"Technician" may also be used to refer to members of the IT organization or other teams that will be responsible for handling, creating, or responding to requests submitted by customers or other technicians.
