Overview

The default System Manager role and License Manager role can add new users to the account based on the number of licenses available. Follow these steps to add a new user to your SpecLink Cloud account.

Steps to Add a New User

Follow the steps below to add a new user.

1. From the SpecLink Cloud Dashboard, click the People tab:
   
   
    
2. From the sidebar menu of the People page, review the number of "Full Licenses" to confirm there are licenses available. The image below shows 3 out of 10 full licenses are in use. 7 licenses remain available on this account.
   
   
    
3. Click the red New User button. 
   
   
   
   The Add a New User window appears as below:
   
   
    
4. Enter the first and last names as well as the email address of the new user. Users must be "named" in that they must be unique to an individual. 
    
5. Select the License Type and Role for the new user.
    
6. If you need to add additional users at this time, click the “Add More Users” link.
   
   
   
   This will access a second user entry area on the same window.

6. When done entering all user information, click the blue Add # User(s) button.
   
   
   
   The new user will now be listed in the “Users” list. The new user will receive an email letting them know the account has been created. The email includes a system generated password as well as steps for getting started.

It is important to note that when adding a user to the role of "License Manager", they will not take up one of the active licenses on the account.
