What is typically the outcome of individual user set preferences compared to general preferences?

User preferences are designed to tailor the NetSuite experience to individual needs, allowing specific choices to take priority over more general, system-wide settings. When a user sets their preferences, these customizations will override the default or general preferences that are established for the system.

This means that if a user prefers a certain layout, or has selected specific settings for notifications, those individual preferences will be applied instead of the general settings that might apply to all users. This allows for a personalized experience, accommodating the diverse ways different users might want to work within NetSuite.

In this context, general preferences serve as the baseline configuration for the system, but they can be customized at the user level, ensuring that individual settings have greater significance in customizing user experience.
