Decide who at a customer can see jobs

Approve, widen or block the people who sign in to a customer's request portal.

Sending a request needs nothing from you. Seeing jobs does, because a job shows the consumer's name. Portal people lists everyone who has signed in to a customer's portal and exactly what each one can see.

Step by step

  1. 1Open the customer's Portal tab and look under Portal people.
  2. 2Each person shows where they stand: "Sees their own jobs", "Sees all of this customer's jobs", "Can request, waiting for approval to see jobs", or "Blocked".
  3. 3Click "Approve to see jobs" for someone who is waiting. They then see the jobs booked under their name, matched by their email to one of this customer's requestors.
  4. 4Click "Give See all" for someone who should see every job for this customer, like a scheduler who books for a whole department. "Turn off See all" takes it back.
  5. 5Click "Block" to shut one person out without touching anyone else at the customer. "Unblock" gives them back exactly what they had.

Tips

  • Someone whose email already matches one of this customer's requestors can see their own jobs from their very first sign-in. Nobody else is ever approved automatically, not even after you book their request.
  • When someone new signs in and is waiting for approval, you get a notification and the customer's Portal tab shows a badge.
  • Approved but marked "Not matched to a requestor yet"? They have no jobs to see until their email is on one of this customer's requestors (the Requestors tab) or you give them See all.
  • People who can't see jobs yet still get emails about their own requests: received, booked or turned down.
  • Managing portal people needs Customers access at the Manage level.
