Basics - System Admin

Overview

This guide is for Certified System or Business administrators. The tools that are described within this manual are only available to those individuals that have attended training at Satuit Technologies.

This document covers all the functions of the Satuit System Administrator. Based upon the permissions granted specific functions may not be available under your user ID. The System Administrator tools are very powerful and should only be granted to trained individuals on your team.

Accessing the System Administrator

From the main menu on the left side of your screen, click on Tools and then select System Administrator.

IMPORTANT ON-PREMISE INSTALLATIONS:

We strongly recommend that you immediately change the DEFAULT System Administrator’s password.

Security Menu

Below is a listing of all the items that are available in the security menu section. If you do not see any of the items below you may not have the proper permissions to access them or they may be related to an add-on item within Satuit that is not enabled within your site.

Users

From the menu select Security and click on Users. To grant access to specific products you can select the checkbox as long as you have available licenses for that item. If the license is not available, then you will need to follow the screen prompts when asking if you would like to purchase licenses.

Editing a Rep

Select Users from the System Administrator menu.

Select the Rep name from the list of users on the right-hand side; double click to open the details of the Rep. The specific Satuit products must be selected for the User to access them; SatuitCRM, SatuitCRA, or Sauit2GO and any additional modules.

  • Rep – This is normally the first initial of the given/first name and the last/family name. See the note labeled IMPORTANT before making any changes to this field
  • Full Name – This is the Rep's full name
  • Title – This is the Rep’s title
  • Email – This is the Rep’s email address. NOTE: We suggest only accepting the company-provided email address in this box. Each email must be unique
  • Additional Email Addresses – Any additional email addresses a rep may use to send emails from Satuit2GO should be added here
  • Phone – This is the phone number for the Rep
  • Approved – This field must be checked for the user’s Satuit license to be active. If this is not checked they will not be able to use Satuit
  • Unlock this Rep – If a User has entered in their password incorrectly 3 times* their Satuit license will become locked out for 10-minutes*; to allow them access before the 10-minutes you may select Unlock and then click Save
  • Reset User’s Password – To reset the users’ password click on the checkbox and then click Save, a system-generated email will be sent to the user with a link to reset their password
  • Reset User’s Home Page – If a user is getting an error on their Home Page it may need to be reset to the default settings. Click the check box and then Save, the user’s Home Page will be restored the default view
  • Assign User Roles - This option enables and disables the rights each user has. Any roles/permissions granted are additive, meaning that if you grant rights to a feature/field in one role that user will always have that right even if you deny them the right to that feature/field in another role.
  • Teams for this User - If Team Privacy is enabled, you can select which Team(s) this user is assigned to for purposes of Team Privacy. This feature is helpful if you have multiple groups using Satuit where some groups may enter data that should only be seen by them. An example may be a Private Equity team has sensitive information about a deal they are working on that cannot be viewed by the Institutional Team.
  • User Groups - This feature will allow customized Detail Form and Search Form configurations for each User Group, making the system highly configurable to support multiple teams. (Available in v16.5+)

Unlocking a Rep

A Rep’s password has expired or s/he has been locked out.

  • Select 'User' from the System Administrator menu
  • Click on 'Unlock Rep'. This will allow the System Administrator to unlock the Rep’s login if a Rep has been locked out. Lockouts are usually caused when s/he has tried to log in multiple times with an invalid password. The number of attempts allowed before being locked out can be modified in the Password Rules Configuration section. The initial value is 3 attempts.
    • Note: If a Rep has been locked out due to multiple failed attempts, it will be unlocked after the number of minutes specified in the Login Rules
