Users

SETUP -> Users

This page allows users and security roles to be maintained.

  • Login - must be unique.

  • First name

  • Surname

  • Password - this field is only visible when you create the user. Enter a temporary password, ask the user to change their password on first logon.

  • Confirm password - this field is only visible when you create the user. Retype the password entered above.

  • Email - email address. Used on some reports where electronic signatures are printed. Also used when the user has forgotten their password.

  • Phone Number - mobile phone number. Used when the user has forgotten their password.

  • Designation - role in the business. Used on some reports where electronic signatures are printed.

  • Roles - select role(s) for this user (these need to be setup in the Roles tab first).

  • Active? - untick if the user should not be using snapSales anymore. This will stop them from logging in. This is important if an employee has left the company (being a website, snapSales can be accessed from anywhere).

  • Signature - this field is only visible when you edit a user (must save first). Select an image file (or drag and drop a file) of the user's signature, this should be in blue pen. The recommended image size is 200x80 pixels. This will show on certain reports where a signature is required, eg Health certificate, invoice if it has been configured for signing, etc.

Restrictions:

For certain pages, you can restrict what the user sees.

  • Customers - used for customers that will use the Customer portal. They will only see data for these customers.
  • Locations - NB extra configuration is required if you want to use this. Select locations you only want this user to see, useful for external growers and/or coolstores.

Roles

These are the roles in the Users tab. They determine screen permissions/rights.

  • Description - role name.
  • User rights - tick for each right you want this role to have access to.
Tip

Tick/untick the Right box in the header to tick/untick all rights that are showing (use the filter to restrict what is showing in the list).

Note

If you select an existing role, only rights that role has access to will display. If you want to add more rights, tick the Show all? box.

Role permissions can be changed here by clicking on the Roles cell. The ticks show which roles have this permission/right.

Customer portal

The URL for customers will be your URL with /customer appended, eg https://demosales21.snapapps.nz/customer. It is advisable to setup a Role for "Customer" and give them this role. You should include the following rights for the customer portal

  • Customer portal - loadouts

The Customer portal lists all sales/loadouts for this customer. Click on a record to view more detail including:

  • Containers
  • Shipping documents - only Documents that have been marked as visible to the customer will be listed.
  • Growers - lists growers that have contributed to the load. If the grower has Documents for Customer portal setup in SETUP -> Locations or SETUP -> Vendors, then these documents will be available here. Could be useful for spray records, etc.

Changing passwords

There are 3 options for changing passwords

  • Users can change their own password - when logged on, press the key icon in the top left hand corner of the screen.
  • User has forgotten their password - from the login screen, press the "Forgot your password?" link. This will ask the user for a login, email address or mobile number. Based on this criteria, the system will try and find the user that matches this information. If only 1 user is found, an email (if the user has an email address setup) or SMS message (if the user has a mobile number setup) will be sent to the user with a link to reset their password. If multiple or no users match the criteria, an email alert will be sent to the email address setup in the "PasswordResetEmail" setting in SETUP -> System.
  • Admin person changes the password for a user - this can be done on the Users screen by pressing the key icon for the user.
