# Settings

Manage BEAM IFC settings

The IFC settings hold the document-wide information written to every IFC export. They are saved in the `.3dm` file.

Open **Document Ifc Settings** in either of these ways:

* Click the gear (**Ifc Settings**) in the tool row of the [panel](/beam/beam-for-rhinoceros/using-rhino-beam.md#tool-row).
* Click the gear in the [IFC Export](/beam/beam-ifc-for-rhino/export.md) dialog.
