Only Company Administrators can add/create new users. User permissions are set by the Company Administrators. Users can be granted access to multiple divisions and have distinct permissions.
There is no limit as to how many regular users can be assigned to a company. However, user logons must be unique. Payway recommends that the logon name convention be the user’s email address.
To create a new user, login on the admin home page and select the “ADD USER” button on the toolbar.
Add information, permissions and credit limit of the new user.
