Inviting Users to Your Organization

Created by Emily A, Modified on Tue, 6 Oct at 7:41 PM by Emily A

Bring your team into IntoAEC with the right access from day one. From User Hub, you can invite a user, set their working hours and rates, and decide exactly what they can see and do.


User types

TypeHow it's assignedAccess
Super AdminAutomatically, at registrationFull access to every module and the admin portal
UserInvited by a Super Admin or anyone with User Hub permissionOnly what their role and permissions allow

Step 1: Open User Hub

  1. Go to IntoAEC.ai and select your organization, if you belong to more than one.
  2. Click the Invite Users/Vendors icon in the top-right corner.
  3. Select User Hub from the dropdown.
  4. Click Invite User.


Step 2: Add the user's details

EmailYesWhere the invite is sent; this becomes their login
RoleYesSets their default permissions (see Roles and Teams)
Working HoursNoStandard hours per day
Rate / HourNoRegular hourly cost
Overtime Rate / HourNoHourly cost beyond working hours

Pro tip: Double-check the email before sending. Once a user accepts, their email can't be changed.

Step 3: Set module permissions

Tick a module to give access, or untick sub-items to fine-tune. Switch on Enable super access to grant every permission at once.

Permission groupCovers

Step 4: Choose access settings

Permissions decide where a user can go. Settings decide what they can do there.

SettingOptions

TasksAll tasks, or only Assigned ones
Default DashboardLead, Revenue or Project: the screen they see first after login
Bills and ExpensesAll (full access), Read Only (view only) or Write Only (add entries, can't see others')

Pro tip: Start new users on Assigned projects and tasks. You can widen access as their responsibilities grow.

Step 5: Send the invite

Click Send Invite. The user appears in User Hub as Pending until they accept.

How the user accepts

  1. The user opens the invitation email and clicks Accept Invite.
  2. They enter their mobile number and verify it with an OTP.
  3. They set a password and click Proceed to Login.
  4. They log in with their email and password and land on their default dashboard.

Pro tip: Ask new users to check their spam folder if the invite doesn't arrive.
