To change a user's permissions, you must already be a Nectar admin.
- Go to the Users tab and click on the profile of the person you want to update.
- Scroll down to the field titled Workspace Permissions
If you don't see all these permissions options you may not have access to some of them.
There are six permission options:
Engage Admin: Gives the user access to all Engage settings. You only want people who should be editing the settings inside your Nectar account to have this permission.
- Comms Admin: Gives the user access to all Comms settings. You only want people who should be editing the settings inside your Nectar account to have this permission.
- Recognition Admin: Gives the user access to all Recognition Admin settings. You only want people who should be editing the settings inside your Nectar account to have this permission.
- Manager: Identifies a user as a manager to receive the associated monthly manager point allowance.
- Analytics Access: Allows a user to have access to the Analytics reports without having Admin permissions. This can be used for upper management or financial departments that may need access to this information.
- Group Sending: Is to allow users to give shoutouts in larger groups like departments. Click HERE for more information on this feature.
Once you select the permission you want the user to have, scroll down and click Save Employee.
