Your license with Zahara is for named users. This means if you need to register a new user, you need to make sure your license count will allow for a new user. If you are taking a trial, the you have unlimited users for the first 30 days so add as many as you require.
To add a new user, and to see the Admin > Settings menu, you need to be a tenancy admin. This is enabled on a user by user basis under the users main settings.
Go to the Admin > Settings menu.
You have two choices – Wizard or Manual.
The key thing to remember, here is that once a user is created, they need to be assigned to a Division, so Divisions must be created first.
Your process then for adding users is:
Adding Users Manually
Add your users First Name, Last Name, Email & Job Title.
There is a spare field called AD User – ignore this for now.
The only additional option here is to “Suppress Registration Email” – If you switch this to on, the user will not receive their registration email – where they will set their password.
You can send this at a later date. Click Create
Assign Permissions
You now have to assign a membership and permissions

Now assign a role.
When you click the role tick box, certain permissions are set. The role also provides a different dashboard. Read the article on Roles – you have a choice of
Remember to click Update at the bottom – as shown above.
Individual Permissions
If you click a users name – anywhere you see it in this section, you will be taken into their individual record where you can edit their details and their permissions. You can also set their password manually, or their absence settings.
