# Adding Users

# **Adding Users**

The Users module in uAuditor allows administrators to add team members and assign them access to inspections, actions, reports, and operational workflows. Adding users ensures the right people can perform tasks within their assigned locations and responsibilities 👤

User setup is an essential step during onboarding and whenever your organization expands.

## **What Is a User in uAuditor?**

A **user** is any team member who accesses the platform through the web portal or mobile app to perform operational activities such as:

- conducting inspections
- completing assigned tasks
- managing corrective actions
- reviewing reports
- monitoring alerts
- supervising locations

Each user receives access based on assigned roles and locations.

## **Why Adding Users Is Important**

Adding users allows organizations to:

- assign inspectors to branches
- control access permissions
- distribute operational responsibilities
- enable task completion workflows
- support compliance monitoring
- improve accountability across teams

Proper user configuration ensures structured platform usage.

## **Steps to Add a New User**

To add a user:

1. Open Settings
2. Navigate to Users
3. Click Add User
4. Enter the user’s name
5. Enter the email address
6. Add the phone number (optional if required by workflow)
7. Assign a role
8. Select assigned locations
9. Save the user

Once created, the user can log in using their credentials.

## **Assigning Roles to Users**

Each user must be assigned a role that determines what they can access and manage inside the platform.

Roles typically control:

- inspection visibility
- action management permissions
- report access
- broadcast interaction
- violation handling rights
- administrative configuration access

Choosing the correct role ensures secure access control.

## **Assigning Locations to Users**

Users should be assigned to the locations they are responsible for.

Location assignment allows users to:

- perform inspections at assigned branches
- view relevant tasks
- manage actions within their scope
- receive alerts related to their locations
- access location-specific reports

This improves operational clarity.

## **Supporting Multi-Location Users**

Some users may manage multiple branches.

Examples include:

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

These users can be assigned multiple locations during setup.

## **User Login After Creation**

After adding a user:

- login credentials are shared with the user
- the user signs in through [https://app.uauditor.com](https://app.uauditor.com)
- access becomes available immediately based on permissions

Users can then begin working within their assigned responsibilities.

## **Example Use Case**

Example scenario:

A restaurant chain adds branch supervisors as users in uAuditor.

Each supervisor:

- is assigned their branch location
- receives inspection responsibilities
- monitors corrective actions
- tracks compliance performance

This ensures structured operational oversight across branches.

## **Best Practices for Adding Users**

To manage users effectively:

- assign roles based on responsibilities
- limit access to relevant locations only
- use clear naming conventions
- verify email accuracy before saving
- update user access during organizational changes

Adding users in uAuditor helps organizations distribute responsibilities efficiently and ensures inspections, monitoring, and compliance workflows are handled by the right team members.
