Overview

Users can be added to AssessBook manually or by using HR import. Typically, adding users manually is the best method when adding single users at a time.

If, however, you need to add a group of users in bulk, HR import is the best way to achieve this.



On this page:





Manually Adding Users

To manually add individual users, select Users on the admin menu (settings cog) in the top right:



This will open a page that displays all users from which you can search and edit existing profiles. You can also add new users by selecting the 'Add a new user' button:



The following page to appear will allow you complete relevant information for the user. All fields noted with a red asterisk * are mandatory and must be completed, e.g. First name, Surname, Email address. You can also add a password for the user and whether to 'Force password change' when first logging in:



Hierarchy Imports

In addition to adding manually, users can be added in bulk via an upload and import. The latest user, organisation, position, and job assignment lists will be uploaded routinely by the admin contact of the relevant TOC to do this.


User Upload

To upload, select the cog on the top toolbar and click “Users”. On the drop-down sidebar, select Upload Users. On the new page, select the relevant file, click through Upload Users. On the new page, ensure that the following fields are set as follows:

Upload type: Add new and update existing users
New user password: Field required in file
Existing user details: Override with file
Existing user password: No changes

The remaining details can stay as default (although do ensure “Allow suspending and activating of accounts” is set to ‘Yes’).

Then 'Upload Users'.
