# Vault Management

Fathom Vaults are designed to be straightforward and accessible to anyone with a vision for creating effective investment strategies. Unlike traditional systems that may centralize management, Fathom democratizes the ability to deploy, manage, and derive earnings from personalized vault configurations.

**Deployment**

Each vault version comes with its own Factory deployed for easy and secure vault deployment. To deploy a vault, interact with the factory using the `deployVault` method, which clones a pre-existing vault setup, ensuring consistency and reliability.

**Setup**

Post-deployment, you can customize your vault's settings:

* **Roles**: Define roles for different operational aspects of your vault. You can assign roles like strategy addition, debt management, and profit reporting.
* **Deposit Limits**: Initially set to zero, you'll need to configure this to start accepting deposits.

**Strategy Management**

Vaults manage debt among various strategies that generate yields.

* **Add Strategy**: Integrate new strategies to allocate funds.
* **Update Strategy**: Adjust strategy settings, including maximum debt limits.
* **Revoke Strategy**: Safely remove strategies that no longer align with the vault’s objectives.

**Running the Vault**

Operate your vault with simplicity:

* **Debt Allocation**: Manage how funds are distributed among strategies.
* **Reporting**: Regularly update the vault on strategy performance, capturing gains or losses and handling fee applications.
* **Profit Distribution**: Manage how and when profits are distributed to shareholders.

**Customization**

Enhance your vault’s functionality with additional features:

* **Accountant**: Attach custom fee logic.
* **Deposit/Withdraw Modules**: Customize rules for fund flows.
* **Queue Management**: Optimize strategy execution order.
