If you have permission to create logins skip this screen completely and go to the Create Login screen. • To make a login request selectYes for Request User Account. Enter the roles you want assigned to the user in the Details of User Account Request field. • The Request Date, Requested By, Granted Date, and Granted By are system generated and read only fields. • Click Finish. The user will receive their login information via email from the administrator. • Note: Use this screen ONLY if no one in your agency has been assigned a System Admin role and thus, no one in your agency has the ability to create a login for the user.
Staff List • Create Login • The fields at the top of the screen (First, Last, Manager Name, Staff Type, Title, Primary Role, and Employment Type) are system generated and read only. If you find any information that is not correct on these fields it should be fixed on the Staff Profile screen before creating the login. • Click Create Login from the Staff List in the left tool bar. To create a login enter the User Login ID (the recommended combination for User Login Id is first initial + Last name – all one word) and verify the User Email.. • Note: Generally, there is only one or two individuals assigned with the system admin responsibilities in each provider agency. Please review the staff role definitions module for details on System Admin role. • Click Finish. As soon as you click on Finish, the system generates the login information of Password and PIN for this staff and sends it to the e-mail address that is recorded here, along with the User Login ID you just created. • Note: It is recommended that you inform the staff in advance to expect an e-mail with his/her login information.
Staff List • System Access • This screen is used to define what role or roles the staff member will be assigned and therefore what system access s/he will have. This will determine what the staff is able to see or not see in the system and what s/he can just read or also edit. Please review the Staff Role and Access Definitions module before setting up these roles. • Click System Access from the Staff List in the left tool bar. Select the role to be assigned to the staff member from the Job Function Roles box. Click the right pointing arrow to move the role to the Assigned Job Function Roles. Helpful Hint: To select more than one role at a time, use the CTRL key. Note: many of the Job Function Roles will automatically move the Role Attributes assigned to them. • To remove a function from the Assigned Job Function Roles, select the function and click the left pointing arrow. Note: removing any role with Full Access will automatically remove the associated Read-Only role. Also, once assigned, the Read-Only role cannot be removed by itself so as to leave its associated Full-Access role as the remaining Job Function Role. This role would have to assigned as a separate function without the associated Full Access role. • To specify roles within a job function you can move items from the Assigned Role Attributes to the Role Attributes. This will remove the user’s access to this role. To do this select the Role Attribute and click the left pointing arrow. This allows you to setup access for a staff by specific modules in the system. • Click Finish when you have completed the system access. • Only a System Admin person will see the Administrative Actions options at the bottom of the screen. See Page 12 for details on using these options.
Staff List • System Access: Some General Rules • Someone with the SMART administrator role cannot have Clinical or the Case Reopen roles. The system will not allow it. • Only a SMART administrator can have or assign the role of a Code Table Administrator. • To be able to create logins for staff, assign roles, reset logins and release locks one has to have the role of Staff Administrator. • Moving Clinical (Full Access) to the right in the box for Job Function Roles will automatically move its associated roles in the Role Attributes box to the right. • If you want to give access to the staff only for specific clinical modules, then do not select Clinical (Full Access) in the top box. Just select the specific clinical modules in the box for Role Attributes and move them to the right. • If you want to give full access to a staff ONLY by treatment team membership, move Clinical (Full Access) to the right in the top box, and then go to the bottom box, highlight the Non-Treatment Team Access item from the right box and move it back to the left.
Staff List • System Access: Administrative Actions • Reset Credentials allows you to reset the particular staff member’s password and PIN, thereby generating an e-mail with the reset information. If the staff member forgets their password and PIN there may be a need to generate new password and PIN. • Note: This is to be used only when the staff has no way of getting into the system without a new password and PIN. If a user wants to just change their password and PIN they can do that under My Settings menu item. • Disable Account allows you to discontinue a staff’s account and access into the system. When a staff member leaves the provider agency it may be important to stop their access to the system and disable their account completely. • Release Lock allows you to unlock someone’s account. Generally, if someone is logged in and closes the window without logging out their account will be locked and the user will not be able to get in until the System Administrator releases this lock.
