Managing Existing Users
Once users are onboarded, administrators can modify their permissions and client visibility as their responsibilities evolve.
Viewing and Searching Users
- Go to Settings and Users.
- Search Bar: Quickly find a user by their name or email.
- Filter by Role: View all users assigned to a specific role (e.g., all "Operators").
- Status Filter: Toggle between Active and Inactive users.
Editing User Access
If a team member changes roles or needs to monitor new clients:
- Locate the user in the table and click the Actions (3 dots) menu.
- Select Edit.
- Update Role: Change their permission set.
- Update Customer Group: Change which clients they can see.
- Click Save.
Immediate Sync
Permission changes take effect immediately. The user may need to refresh their browser tab to see new sidebar icons or client sites.
Deactivate vs. Delete
When a user no longer needs access, you have two options:
Deactivate (Recommended)
- Status: Sets the user to Inactive.
- Result: The user is immediately logged out and cannot log back in.
- Why: Preserves the user's history in audit logs and allows for easy reactivation if they return.
Delete (Permanent)
- Status: Permanently removes the record.
- Result: The account is gone and cannot be restored.
- Why: Use only for accounts created by mistake or during development.
Security Best Practices
- Quarterly Audits: Review your user list every 3 months. Deactivate anyone who hasn't logged in recently.
- Offboarding: Deactivate accounts the moment a team member leaves the organization.
- Avoid Shared Accounts: Never share a single login (e.g.,
operator@company.com) between multiple people. This destroys your audit trail.
