# Tailor a client account

> Assign a reusable model and apply confirmed client-specific settings to one account.

Use a shared model for the target allocation and account settings for an individual client's implementation needs. This guide follows synthetic client **Maya Patel**, her **Revocable Trust**, and the **Growth** model in Evergreen Advisory.

## 1. Read the current account

Open **Clients**, find the client or household, and select the account. Open **Setup** to see its **Model**, **Sleeves**, and **Settings**. Check the account name above the tabs before editing.

If the account needs a model, select **Assign model**, or **Change** beside an existing model. Choose the intended model and confirm the assignment. Assignment saves at confirmation; apply or discard any queued setup changes before changing the model. [Build a model portfolio](/advisor/build-model-portfolio) explains the shared structure.

## 2. Propose one account change

Select a sleeve to inspect its Tilts and direct indexing, or select a settings group: **Tax**, **Transactions**, **Optimization**, or **Constraints**. Check the source beside the group and the individual fields. Values can come from the account, model, organization, or Tilt's defaults.

In chat, ask for a concrete setting, such as **"Propose a 5% USD cash buffer for Maya Patel's Revocable Trust. Show the current value, the value that would take effect, and its source. Do not save yet."**

Review the full proposal. The account can have restrictions, cash settings, tax preferences, direct-indexing choices, and Tilt adjustments. A change may replace a complete collection, so check which existing choices the proposal preserves. Confirm the specific account change only after the proposed and effective values match your intent.

## 3. Verify the result

For edits made in the account interface, open **Queued changes** at the bottom of the page. Review each old and new value. Remove a change you do not want, choose **Discard all** to abandon the draft, or select **Apply** to save it. Apply or discard the queue before requesting an optimization.

Reopen the relevant sleeve or settings group to check its saved value and source. In chat, ask: **"Read Maya Patel's saved Revocable Trust settings and explain which value now takes effect."** If Tilt reports a conflict or uncertain save, inspect the account again before proposing the remaining change.

Account tailoring changes optimization inputs. It does not itself run an optimization or place trades. [Understand settings and rules](/advisor/configuration-and-rules) explains inherited values and Dynamic Rules; [Review a rebalance](/advisor/review-rebalance) covers the later proposal.
