Live the new user cryptic questions. Like they are trying to use google or something. Or, it could be English is not their native language.

If it's an automatic, there is a plastic reservoir on the passenger side of the transmission. It has a clear window on the front that has min, and max fluid level markings. Check it when it's warmed up and running, in park.

On the manual boxes, the oil should be at least up to the fill port but not running out, when you remove the plug. Same for the differential.
