Invite people and manage accounts

Everyone who signs in has an account here: invite them, give roles, and look after their access. Who: administrator · Where in the cycle: Set up.

  • You need Manage people (USER_MANAGE). To hand out roles you also need Manage roles (ROLE_MANAGE); without it new people start with no roles.
  • You can’t give anyone more than you hold yourself.
  • Every account counts against your plan’s user limit — suspended ones and invitations never accepted too.

Setup › Users lists every account: User, Roles, In the field (e.g. “REP-03 · Seller · Van · Reports to sara.sup”), Permissions (how many), Status (Active, Suspended, Locked) and Last sign-in. Filter by status, search by name or username. Invitations waiting lists invitations not yet accepted, with Withdraw.

The Users list with 3 active accounts: Administrator (nile-fresh.admin), Omar Hassan as Sales Representative on REP-03 with a van, and Mona Adel as Supervisor on SUP-01, each with a row menu.

  • On a round — make the person a rep (Put someone on a round).
  • Roles — tick or untick roles; Save roles.
  • Exceptions — give or take away one permission for this person (Give one person an exception).
  • Reset password — Make a temporary password and hand it over; it also unlocks the account and signs them out everywhere. They choose their own at next sign-in.
  • Suspend — signs them out and stops them signing in. Bring back lets them in again.
  • Unlock — for a Locked account (10 wrong passwords in a row).

Nile Fresh invites Omar Hassan with Temporary password and the Sales Representative role. The result block reads “Company: nile-fresh / Username: omar / Password: …”; the administrator hands it to Omar with his phone. A week later Omar types a wrong password ten times and his row shows Locked: the administrator uses Reset password (which unlocks too) and gives him the new temporary password.

  • An invited account exists at once; the invitation shows under Invitations waiting until it’s accepted, withdrawn or 7 days pass.
  • Role changes, exceptions and suspensions reach people already signed in within an hour; a password reset signs them out.
  • Every change is in the audit trail.
