Add a StageStock user

Add a person to your site and give them a StageStock role in one pass: you create the account, then choose which categories they can work in. There's no limit on the number of users on your site.

Who can do this: you'll need the Administrative — Common role of Manager or Administrator, which is what includes Add User. A StageStock role on a category, even Administrator, can't create accounts. Choosing a person's category roles also takes the Assign Users to Category permission for those categories (or an Administrative Choosing a person's category roles also takes the Assign Users to Category permission for those categories (or an Administrative — StageStock role).mdash; StageStock role).

Create the user

1. Go to Administration > User Administration.
2. Click Add User.
3. Enter their First Name, Last Name and Email Address.
4. Under Username, choose Automatically generate username or Specify username.
5. Read the Welcome Message and change it if you like. It already says which site they're joining, and the sign-in steps and their temporary credentials are added to the email for you.
6. Under Password, choose Send Random Password or I will specify a password.
7. Click Next.

Choose their categories

If your site also uses VirtualCallboard, the next screen asks which productions to add them to. Make your choices, then click Add User to continue.

8. On the StageStock Category Roles screen, pick a role for each category this person should work in. Leave a category on None if they shouldn't see it. The User Roles & Permissions article shows what each role can do.
9. Click Save.

You'll see "User has been created successfully," with buttons to open their profile or Add Another User. Their welcome email goes out as soon as the account is created. You can change their roles later from their profile, on the Category Roles tab.
