Step 4.3: Functions

This tab will be greyed out for now. As soon as you’ve saved and created the new user however, this tab will become available. This is simply because, until you tell sales-i which type of user you’ll need, it doesn’t know which options to show you under this tab. Use this tab as and when you need it, but this will allow you to add/remove the following options to someone’s account: Print, Export, Target, CRM, Snapshot, Campaign Manager, Upload Documents, Email Multiple Users, Autopilot.

Step 4.4: Restrictions

Adding a user to a restriction will restrict their view to those accounts only. Simply click the + button in the bottom left-hand corner of the window, choose the restriction/s you wish to place against the user, then select Add Restriction when you’re done. Return to this tab whenever you want to see which restrictions a user has against them or to add/remove them from restrictions.
