How to add a new user to a trading programs channel

To add a new user, click on the + button. The Enter details panel will automatically be displayed on the right. Continue to populate the details explained in the sections below.

Add user and enter details

Enter details

  • Email address: Enter the user’s email address, ensuring no spaces are added before or after the email address. Then click Next to automatically display the remaining settings.

Note: If you use an external single sign-on (SSO) identity provider to log into Enable (as opposed to an Enable account), you must additionally add the new user's first name and surname.

User preferences

  • User language: Select from the languages currently supported by Enable. Interested in using a different user language? Please let us know by raising feedback with our product team here.
  • Number display format: Select an option to determine how numbers are displayed in Enable for the user, including in CSV files (e.g. transaction files).

User access settings

Depending on the features enabled for your channel, you can set user access settings on a per-user level. The options available can include:

  • Channel admin: Set the checkbox to allow the user to access the Config menu. Channel admin users have the ability to manage users, manually import data, review transaction reconciliation reports, and more. Learn more about channel admin access areas for managing data here and managing users here.
  • Permitted program line types: Only displays when the Channel admin checkbox is clear. Select an option to allow the user to access program lines for permitted types only. If using Selected program line types, the program line types must be selected via the icon.
  • Can set accrual bands: Set the checkbox to allow the user to manually set accrual bands for targeted program lines.
  • Workflow emails opt out: Set the checkbox to turn off email notifications for the user for automatic approval workflow.
  • Can access deals: Set the checkbox to allow the user to access special pricing agreements (SPAs). This is required for SPAs channel users. Learn more about user access settings for SPAs here.
  • Can access promotions: Set the checkbox to allow the user to access to the promotions app.

This section only displays when the Executive Dashboard checkbox is set within App access.

  • ‘View By' filter access: Select Full to provide the user with an overall view of executive dashboard, including data associated with all trading partners. Select Individual to provide the user with a personal view of executive dashboard, only viewing data associated with the trading partners the user is mapped to.

Sending the welcome email to the new user

Once the above settings have been selected, click the Save button to create the user.

Click the Send welcome email button for your user to be invited to use Enable. Note: Your new user will not have access until this email is sent.

The team member will then receive an email from Enable inviting them to start using the platform. They will be required to click on the URL provided and if they do not already have an account with Enable, set the details for their account.

For users who have already been sent a welcome email, the Send welcome email button will be disabled. Need a welcome email to be resent? Please reach out to our support team here.
