How to create a customised user profile

In this article we will demonstrate how to create a customised user profile and explain the different modules

Profiles allow administrators to restrict access to various parts of the platform for their users. To set up a customised profile go to Settings > Users & Permissions > Profiles

The system provides 4 different default profiles which are:

* Admin - With access to the whole system based on the package chosen;

* Standard Viewer - Won't have access to the Settings menu option;

* Email Only - Won't have access to the system but it can be set as a recipient for alerts and scheduled reports.

* Custom -  Customised access 

Your Transpoco account consists of different modules and we will explain the purpose of each module now.  We will explain the purpose of each module to allow you to create your own customised profile.
