Multi-users can be assigned one of three roles: Basic, Accountant, or Admin. The role you select determines the level of access your multi-user has to your account.
No matter which role you select, multi-users cannot access or change your:
Login settings
Billing
Notification settings
Affiliate dashboard
Connected calendar
Basic
A basic user will only have access to the projects and tasks to which they have been assigned. Basic users can't create new projects.
Below is an illustration of the simplified dashboard visible to basic users. Basic users will not have access to the brand-wide inbox or settings. They will only see calendar events associated with projects or tasks to which they have been assigned.
The Reporting section is not available to a basic user. The only Utility available to basic users is the address book. The only clients visible in the address book will be the clients whose projects the basic user is assigned to.
From the Projects page, basic users will only see projects to which they have been assigned.
Inside of a project, basic users CAN:
Change the title and date
Archive/unarchive the project
Add tags and change the project status
Update client and project mapped fields
Activate the portal and set/change the portal password
Send emails, including canned email templates to the client
View, edit, copy, remove and send forms which have already been added to the project
View and change existing appointments and send new scheduling requests (i.e. create a scheduler on the fly instead of using a template)
View workflows which have already been added to the project
Add, edit, and complete tasks
Add and edit project notes and view the project activity log
Inside of a project, basic users CANNOT:
Add, send, or edit the contract on the project
Access the invoices tab
Add new forms to the project
Send new appointment scheduling requests using a scheduler template
Additional permissions for basic users
If you select the basic role, you will also be able to choose whether or not this user will have access to:
Contracts - turning on this option will enable access to view, edit (if not yet signed), and send the existing contract on the project.
Invoices - turning on this option will enable the Invoices tab inside of the project, which allows the user to view, create, edit, and send invoices to the client. The Reporting section and brand-wide financial information will still be restricted.
Templates - turning on this option will allow basic users to add canned emails, contracts, forms, and workflows to a project from the available templates already created in the brand. Basic users will be able to edit emails, contracts, forms, and workflow actions once added to the project, but their edits will not affect the templates outside of the project. They will be able to view the Templates section in the main menu and view the templates, but will see a Permission Denied error if they try to edit, add, or delete any templates. Basic users with this permission will not be able to add or view scheduler templates.
Accountant
An accountant user will only have access to view the Invoices, Transactions, Chart of Accounts, and Reports pages under Reporting in the main menu. Accountant users may view invoices by accessing them from the list under Reporting >> Invoices, but they will not be able to edit any invoices.
All viewable pages are read-only — accountant users are unable to make any edits to these pages.
Admin
An admin user will have access to almost everything in your account that you do - all of your projects, reporting, templates, etc.
There are some limitations for admin users:
An admin multi-user will not have access to Settings >> Billing for your brand.
Multi-users (including admin users) cannot see each other's connected calendars. An admin user may connect a calendar to their account, but only the brand owner's calendar will interact with the scheduler. The scheduler does not support scheduling with multiple team members.
Multi-users (including admin users) cannot connect their own email account to the brand. Only one email account may be connected per brand.
FAQ
Can I change a multi user's role after inviting them to my account?
Yes! Just head to Settings (the gear icon) >> Multi Users and click on their name in the list. You'll be able to choose a different role or adjust their current role there.
How do notifications work with multi-users and their roles?
Each multi-user is able to control their own notification settings for each brand they have access to. Multi-users will only have control over notifications appropriate to their role and will not receive notifications about something in Dubsado that their role does not give them access to.
Can each user have their own email address connected for receiving and sending emails through Dubsado?
No. Only one email account may be connected per brand. Multi-users will not be able to send messages from their own email accounts in your brand, but they will be able to see replies from clients while inside Dubsado.
Can each user connect their own calendar to Dubsado for scheduling?
While each user can connect their own calendar account to Dubsado, the Dubsado scheduler only integrates with the brand owner's calendar. You will not be able to create different schedulers for different multi-users, or automatically assign appointments to different multi-users based on their availability. Users cannot see each other's calendars.
Can a multi-user get BCC'd on emails?
No. Only the brand owner can be BCC'd on outgoing emails sent through Dubsado.
