Further details for Technician users
It is suggested that a Default Technician is set up, this will allow filters to be used more easily and allow them to clock in and out of their jobs more easily as well.
In the "User Maintenance", click on the Workshop tab, then select the default technician
Further details for Timeclock users
You can specify which department Timeclock users will be available in by selecting them in the Security button in the Workshop Tab:
To access the Workshop tab the Workshop Module (#5 above) HAS to be ticked Remember to Untick "Workshop" in modules above (#5) once the workshop has been selected or it will increase your concurrent user count when logged in
Timeclock User Key Points: Do not take up any concurrent logged in user licenses Require a unique REAL email address #5 above is UNTICKED
Set-up the user Role
When User accounts are created in the main Orion desktop application, there are default 'Roles' assigned to the user:
- If Manager is ticked they are assigned the Administrator Role
- If Manager is NOT ticked - they are assigned the Technician role
If these roles are correct you do not need to proceed with the following steps, outlining how to assign an alternate role in webWorkshop.
Setting Up Roles in webWorkshop
Log in to a manager account here: https://orion.sam.co.nz/sam
If it is your first time logging in then you will need to verify your email address - see this article for more information.

Click on the Role (1) and select whichever is appropriate, then Save (3)
The message icon (2) gives you information on what the role can do
Only the Role can be edited here in webWorkshop - the other information can only be edited in the main Orion desktop application
