BRANCHES tab
The BRANCHES tab is only viewable when logged in as an Organization Manager.
It lists all of the branches that you as an Organization Manager have access to. If you manage multiple organizations, select an organization from the drop-down list in the top right-hand corner of the screen to view its branches.
From this tab, you can also create a new branch of an organization. Expand the below procedure for details about adding a new branch.
SITES tab
The SITES tab lists all of the sites that you as a technician have access to. Organization Managers can select an Organization from the drop-down list in the top right-hand corner of the screen to view all sites in that organization, grouped by branch. If a technician has access to multiple branches, it can select a Branch from the drop-down list to view all sites in that branch.
The Sites table shows Installer Branch, Site Name , Key Account Holder, Contact, Site Address, Status of site and date site was activated. View can be changed by selecting and deselecting columns.
To view an existing site, click on its name in the list, or search its name in the search bar and then select it. From this tab, you can also create a new site. This is covered in the topic Create a Site or Demo Site.
TECHNICIANS tab
The TECHNICIANS tab is only viewable when logged in as an Organization Manager or Install Manager. It lists all the technicians within your organization.
There are three roles - Organization Manager, Install Manager or Install Technician.
Organization Mangers can create, view, update and delete branches on the BRANCHES tab, create, view, update, delete, and resend invites to all the technicians on the TECHNICIANS tab, and change a site's Key Account Holder and general configuration.
Install Managers can create, view, update, delete, and resend invites to all the technicians on the TECHNICIANS tab, and change a site's Key Account Holder and general configuration.
Install Technicians cannot access the TECHNICIANS tab or change a site's Key Account Holder, but can perform standard configuration for sites.
On the TECHNICIANS tab, as an Organization or Install Manager, you will see your own technician account listed. You can edit and resend the invite to your own account, but you can never delete your own account or change your own Role. These actions must be performed by another Install Manager.
SUPPORT tab
The SUPPORT tab contains three sections; 'Technical', 'Administration', and 'Manage Demo Sites'.
The 'Technical' section contains links that can help you when you need technical help, including the help center for installers, installer training material, and an option to contact technical support.
The 'Administration' section contains links to things you and your customers may need for sales and product setup. This includes links to SMB sales and marketing material, the SMB product order form, and the guarding form.
The 'Manage Demo Sites' section contains all the Demo Sites you have access to. For more information about Demo Sites, click here.
