Settings consist of System Settings, Company Settings, and User Settings which can be modified by Staff with the appropriate permissions as controlled by the ACL for their Staff Group.

Settings are multi-tiered and rely on inheritance. Higher level settings are specified at the System or Company level, and can and are sometimes are overridden at a lower level.

The hierarchy is as follows: System Settings > Company Settings > User Settings. Future development may make additional higher level settings available at lower levels for finer-grained control, but this can be done now through manually editing the database or through the use of Plugins.
