💡Pro tip:

  • If that employee has not received the email please have them check their spam folder.

  • An administrator can manually active an employee as well with the following steps:

    • Select your name name upper right.

    • Select Billing & Account.

    • Click Users.

    • Locate the employees name.

    • Select the Change Password option.​

  1. Select the Employees icon at the top of the screen.

  2. Select the + in the bottom right corner.

  3. Enter employee's information. You must add at least the employee's first name, last name, and email address before you can move on to the next step. Then, press Next.

  4. Selecting Yes for the Create Cloud Account option will add your new employee to the software. This will also allow them to login to the software from the website or a mobile app.

  5. Check the boxes for Email Address and Text Message in the Appt. Notifications sections to allow the employee to receive notifications about their appointments.

  6. If applicable, set Booth Renter/Independent Contractor status and Service Limitations.

  7. Select the access level for this employee. Employee Access levels can be edited from the Settings tab of the Employees screen.

  8. Press Save.

  9. The employee will now get an e-mail to that address asking them to complete the setup, including a link to click to create their account password. Once they complete their password set up, their account will be activated and added to the business’ billing account.

    • If the employee hasn’t received the activation email, first have them check their spam or junk folder. If it’s still missing, an admin can manually activate their account. To do this, the admin should sign in, click their name in the upper-right corner, and choose Billing & Account. From there, go to the Users page, locate the employee’s name, and select Change Password. Once a password is set, the employee will be able to log in successfully.

  10. After the employee profile has been created you can make changes as needed by selecting the Employees icon from the menu, clicking on the employee you would like to edit, making any necessary changes, and then selecting Save.
