Adding, Modifying, and Re-inviting Users


Users with the Manage Users permission in their profile can access the users' list and perform tasks such as adding users, modifying user details, and viewing the apps and add-ons that are activated for each user. The user's details page will also give you the information on the plug-ins and add-ons that are activated for the user. Make sure that you have created the appropriate roles and profiles before you add a user as these will need to be assigned to the users you add.

Points to Consider While Adding Users

  1. Once the account is created, the super admin should confirm the account. If an user is invited before confirming, the invitation email will not be sent. The super admin should confirm the account and re-invite the user.

  2. The Administrator adds a user by providing some basic details like name, email address, role, and profile.
  3. Once the user's details are added, the system automatically sends an email invitation to the user's email address provided by the administrator. Other details such as phone numbers, address, photo, fax, website, date of birth, language, etc. can be entered after adding the user.
  4. The user accepts the invitation by clicking the Access link in the email within 7 days of receiving it.
  5. After accepting the invitation, the user completes whichever of the following is applicable:
    • User is new to the CRM and does not have an account:
      • After clicking the access link in the email, the user will be redirected to the sign-up page.
      • User will sign up and create an account within the CRM.
      • On creating the account, the user should click the Continue signing in button.
      • The user has to confirm the email address by accessing the link sent in the confirmation email.

Adding Users

In the Free Edition, you can add up to 3 users. In the other Editions, the number of users that you can add is based on the user licenses purchased.

    Users with Manage Users permission in their profile can also add users.
  2. Go to Setup > Users & Control > Users.



3.In the Users page, click +Add New User.


  1. In the Add New User page, enter the following details:
    • First Name & Last Name: It is mandatory to enter Last Name.
    • Email : Enter the user's valid email address that has not already been used to create a the CRM account.
      An invitation will be sent to this email address.
    • Role : Choose the role of the user in your organisation.
    • Profile : Choose a profile that defines the user's access rights in your CRM account.
      You can add other details like phone numbers, address, photo, fax, website, date of birth, language, etc., after adding the user.
    • Territory: Assign a territory for the user.
      This option will be available only if your enable Territories.

Note

Data center mismatch

While adding a user to your account, if the user's email address is already registered with a data center you will not be able to register it with another data center. For example, if Mr. John Parker is registered with email address James.Parker@ABCD.com in EU data center, you will not be able to add him in the US data center using the same email address.

However, you can add the same user to your account by using the options below:

  • Request the user to delete the registration with the existing data center and then add them to your account.
  • Request the user to migrate his/her account to your organisation's datacenter.

Modify Users

When you add a user, you will start by be specifying only their name, email address, role and profile details. You can add the user's other details such as phone numbers, address, photo, fax, website, date of birth, language, etc., later, when you need.

To modify a user's details

  1. Go to Setup > Users & Control > Users.
  2. In the Users page, select the user from the list to modify the user details or add more information.
  3. In the User's Details section, click Edit for the corresponding section in which you want to modify the user's details. You can provide the following details:
    • Phone, Mobile, Website, Fax and Date of Birth: Enter contact and biographical information about the user.
    • Address Information : Enter the user's full address details.
    • Language: Set the language for the user's CRM account.
    • Country Locale: Select the user's country from the list.
    • Time Format: Choose between a 12-hour or 24-hour time format.
    • Time Zone: Set the time zone for the user's CRM account.

  4. Click Save.

Re-Invite Users

If a user does not accept the invitation sent by the Administrator within seven days, the administrator can resend the invitation to the user. Users who have not accepted the invitation to join the organisation's CRM account will be listed under Unconfirmed Users. Here you can resend an invite only to the unconfirmed users. If the user is deactivated, you will need to activate them first. See Also Activate Users
