ADD A NEW USER

Set up Users in your admin to assign different capabilities and restrictions to each unique user assigned to your organization or event.

To create a new user, go to the Organization page > Users

  • Click Create New User. A popup will appear for you to enter the first name, last name, and email address of the new user.
  • Click Create User. A popup lets you know an email has been sent to the email address entered.
  • The new user will set up their password and log in to your admin using their email and the new password they created.

SET NEW USER PERMISSIONS OR ADMINS

Admin Permissions: Designed to give roles to certain members of your team that can have full access to all events or specific events in the admin.

Users do not have the ability to edit their own permissions. Someone with a role equal or higher to you will have to make the change. 

Organization Admins -

  • Have access to the Organization page and each current or future event created in the admin.
  • Able to create and delete other Organization or Event Admins with permissions less than or equal to theirs. 
  • Organization Admin permissions also include:
    • Viewing recurring donors, updating Account and Users tabs, creating, deleting, and deactivating events, and making payments (license renewal and upgrades).
  • If the Organization Admin needs to be changed, the current Organization Admin may do so under Organization > Users > Organization Roles.

You can be assigned Organization Permissions without being an Organization Admin. This simply means you have access to certain events within the admin, along with the permission settings listed above.

Event Admins -

  • Needs to be created by an Organization Admin.
  • Have full access to all permissions within their assigned event, regardless of which individual permissions are checked or unchecked.
  • Can create other Event Admins and assign them permissions up to or equal to the permissions they have access to. For example, an Event Admin can give another Event Admin permissions to a specific event, but not to the organization.

You can be assigned All Event Permissions without being an Event Admin. This simply means you have access to certain events within the admin, along with the permission settings selected for you.

Non-Admin Users -

  • Need to be created by an existing user, Organization Admin, or Event Admin.
  • Can have permissions set to certain areas of the admin to streamline who is responsible for working on what. i.e. items, bidders, ticket page, landing page, etc.
  • Does not have the ability to create an Organization Admin or an Event Admin.

The default settings when first creating a new user are only the training permissions. You will have to manually select all the permissions you want the user to have. Users will not have access to admin settings that are not selected.

All the permissions for users are as follows: Training Permissions, Dashboard Permissions, Software Settings Permissions, Bidder Permissions, Items Permissions, Event Ticket Permissions (if applicable), Event Central Permissions, Butler Permissions, Merchant Permissions, Reports Permissions, Donations/ Text-to-Give Permissions, and Recurring Donations Permissions.
