In account settings, you can edit your profile, application language, date format and e-mail notifications. You can also find your substitutions, connected applications, paired mobile devices and an overview of your roles here.

Change password

  1. In the settings header, click Change password.
  2. Enter your current password, the new password and the new password again for confirmation. Use the eye icon to display the entered text.
  3. Click Save new password. The button becomes active only when all three fields are filled in.

Substitution

A list of your substitutions in two tabs: Active and Finished. For each substitution, you can see the substitute, the period from and to, and the permissions. Use the Create substitution button to add a new one. The detailed procedure is described in the Substitution and Vacation article.

Connected applications

External applications you have allowed to access your TAS account, for example an AI assistant connected via MCP. For each one, you can see when you granted access, when the application last used your account and until when the access is valid. The Revoke access action disconnects the application immediately.

Mobile application

Links to download the mobile application and a list of your paired devices. For each device, you can see its status, registration date, last login and whether notifications are enabled. The Connect mobile application button displays a QR code for pairing a new device. The procedure is described in the Mobile Application article. This section is shown only if the mobile application is enabled in your installation.

Roles and competences

An overview of the roles the administrator has assigned to you and the competences that result from them. Roles determine which processes you can start, which cases you can see and which parts of the application appear in your menu. The list is read-only. If you are missing a permission, contact your TAS administrator.
