How To Add New Users:
- To add a new user account, select the Add New User button in the top left hand corner

PLEASE NOTE: The phone number is a required field when creating a new user. If you do not wish to include the user's phone number, you will need to temporarily enter numbers when creating the User account and then remove them afterwards.
- Once created, a confirmation message will appear as well as a temporary password. This password should be provided to the user.
What if you have Chained Accounts?
If you have multiple Site IDs chained together, you will need to ensure that any user who needs access to ALL Site IDs be set up with the "View Chained Accounts" permission granted.
If you want the user to ONLY have access to a particular Site ID, please make sure that the "View Chained Accounts" permission is restricted when setting up the user account under the Site ID you would like them to access.
- The New User will then be added to the list on the User Account Management screen.
