TABLE OF CONTENTS


Precoro provides even greater value when your colleagues are involved.

The process of adding new users to your company depends on the type of your Account:

Single Company Account


To invite a colleague, follow the steps below on the ConfigurationUser Management page:


1. Click on the Invite User button.

2. Enter the email address.

3. Click the Next Step.

4. Enter the requested info about your colleague.



5. The following steps will help you set up the user’s permission to operate within the process: 
  • Choose a Location(s) available to the user. You can use the mass actions to help you speed up the process.

More information about the Mass Actions in User Management can be found in this article below.


  • Choose Documents Custom Fields (Departments, Projects, etc.) you wish to make available to your colleague.

  • Define the Roles by marking those roles and the functions associated with your colleagues concerning their functional responsibilities.

More information about Roles in Precoro can be found in this article.


6. Click Invite. The invited user will receive an email asking them to create a Precoro password. After setting up the password, the user will be redirected to their Precoro account.

You can also manage invitations:

  • Resend the invitations if needed.

  • Edit the email if there are typos.

  • See who has not accepted your invitation yet.

Multi-Company Account


To invite a colleague to one of your companies in a multi-company account, follow the steps below on the ConfigurationUser Management page:


1. Click on the Invite User button.

2. Enter the email address.

3. Select the needed companies by checking them or use the Select All mass action.

4. Click the Next Step button.

In a multi-company account, you will see the Available Companies for the user listed on the right. The user’s main info would be already predefined, as it is shared between all the companies.

You can assign the appropriate Locations, Documents Custom Fields, and Roles to this user in all the listed companies (see steps 4-6 for the Single Company Account).

Use the Mass Actions in User Management to help you speed up the process.

 


5. Press Invite User from Other Company / Invite. The invited user will receive an email with further instructions.

Mass Actions in User Management

 
Use the following mass actions to speed up the process of adding new users or editing the existing ones.
  • For multi-companies, you can add, edit, and deactivate user access in all companies at once. As well as select and appoint a Substitute User for all available companies at once for the deactivated user:
  • Access to All — can at once grant and revoke access to all Locations and Documents Custom Fields options in a specific company.

This function works even when the user has partial access to the options without having Access to All.

  • Select All can at once grant and revoke access to specific Locations and Documents Custom Fields options.

  • Apply to All Companies — can help you automatically duplicate the specific set of User Roles, Locations, and Documents Custom Fields and apply them to all available companies.


You can also use a filter that will help you quickly manage user access to the options, sorting them by the necessary parameter.

You can find the filter in the User’s profiles in tabs for Documents Custom Fields, Locations, and Product Groups (if your company uses this functionality). The filter is, by default, set to Show All Options. Click on the filter to see other available choices: Checked and Unchecked Only.
