Create a new website user while logged in as Website Admin.

Overview 

This provides a guide to creating new website users while logged into the website as Website Administrator or the User Maintenance page accessed through the dashboard for non-website administrator roles. NOTE - A user still has to be enabled as an Account Administator to create new users on that account, whether staff or customers. New website users can also be created in the CMS by staff who are CMS administrators.


When creating a user, ensure the user has the following:

  • a unique login (normally in the form of an of email address).
  • Each User must be associated association with an ERP Debtor Code.
  • A User can have access to many Debtor Codes , or be associated with just one.
    • ie.eg. A , a branch manager will access one code, a national manager will access all codes, etc (can be configured as wildcards).
  • Each User must be assigned assignment of a Role (or even multiple Roles).
  • Each User can have various settings applied (Order dollar limits, who approves orders, etc).
