Invite New Users

Edited

Efficient management of user accounts is essential in a business environment for ensuring security and access control. This document outlines the processes involved in managing user accounts within HirePOS, including inviting new users, setting permissions and roles, linking staff, and utilising single sign-on options.

User Email Address

It is recommended to use email addresses associated with your business domain for user accounts. However, if this is not feasible, personal email addresses may be utilised.

Inviting New Users

To invite new users, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Setup > Preferences > Users.

  2. Enter the user's email address in the Invite User box and click Email User Invitation.

  3. After the new user registers, you can either confirm the user via the automated email that is sent to your admin email address or you can return to Setup > Preferences > Users, select the user to edit, check the Confirm User checkbox, set roles and permissions, and click Save Changes.

User Permissions

User permissions provide fine control over user access. To set permissions, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Setup > Preferences > Users.

  2. Select a user to edit and adjust permissions as needed.

User Roles

HirePOS requires individual user logins. The first user created is automatically assigned the Administrator role. To change user roles, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Setup > Preferences > Users.

  2. Select a user to edit, then set roles and permissions accordingly.

Linking Staff & Users

Staff and users can be linked by matching email addresses. This linkage streamlines record creation and management, and is essential for enforcing user roles and permissions.

Adding Staff Members

To add staff members, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Setup > Staff.

  2. Click + New Staff and fill in the relevant details.

Staff details should include basic information, address, phone numbers, and additional notes for internal reference.

Recent Logins and User History

Access user history and recent logins via Setup > Preferences > Users. This feature aids in tracking user actions and system interactions.

Single Sign-On (Microsoft or Google)

After you initially invite and confirm a new user, consider enhancing security by using Microsoft or Google accounts for single sign-on and multi-factor authentication instead of relying on a traditional username and password.
