# Managing Users

# **Managing Users**

The Users module in uAuditor allows administrators to update user details, adjust permissions, manage location assignments, and maintain secure access across the organization. Proper user management ensures that team members can perform their responsibilities efficiently while maintaining controlled visibility 👤

Regular updates help keep access aligned with organizational roles and structure.

## **Viewing Existing Users**

Administrators can view all registered users from:

**Settings → Users**

The users list typically displays:

- user name
- email address
- assigned role
- assigned locations
- account status

This provides a centralized overview of platform access across the organization.

## **Editing User Information**

User details can be updated when responsibilities change or corrections are required.

To edit a user:

1. Open Settings
2. Navigate to Users
3. Select the user
4. Update required fields
5. Save changes

You can modify:

- name
- email address
- phone number
- assigned role
- assigned locations

Keeping user profiles updated ensures accurate access control.

## **Updating User Roles**

Roles determine what users can access inside uAuditor.

Administrators may update roles when:

- responsibilities change
- promotions occur
- users move between departments
- temporary permissions are required
- access restrictions need adjustment

Role updates take effect immediately.

## **Updating Location Assignments**

User location access can be modified at any time.

This allows administrators to:

- assign new branches
- remove outdated access
- reflect organizational restructuring
- support regional supervision changes

Accurate location assignments improve operational clarity.

## **Activating or Deactivating Users**

Administrators can control whether users remain active in the system.

Deactivating a user:

- prevents login access
- preserves historical inspection records
- maintains reporting continuity
- protects system security

This is recommended when employees leave the organization or change roles.

## **Supporting Multi-Location Access**

Some users require access to multiple locations.

Examples include:

- regional supervisors
- operations managers
- quality teams
- maintenance coordinators

Multi-location access ensures effective oversight across branches.

## **Example Use Case**

Example scenario:

A supervisor transfers to a new branch.

An administrator:

- updates the assigned location
- adjusts the role if needed
- removes access to the previous branch

This keeps permissions aligned with operational responsibilities.

## **Best Practices for Managing Users**

To manage users effectively:

- review user access regularly
- update roles after responsibility changes
- remove access when no longer required
- assign only necessary locations
- deactivate inactive accounts promptly

Managing users in uAuditor helps maintain secure access control and ensures each team member has the appropriate visibility across inspections, tasks, and operational workflows.
