Overview

Both contact and organization records have profile pages, which can be configured by system administrators to contain custom and standard fields.

Each type of profile can be accessed from anywhere in the system by either clicking a hyperlinked Name of the organization or user, or directly from the People, Organization, or Organization Hierarchy pages from the 9-square menu icon and under the heading Organizations.

The menu icon:

Example of Contact Profile Page

There are different components to a user's profile page: a left-hand side menu, their main contact information, their roles, and properties.

  • Note: The left-hand side menu will contain different tabs depending on the user.

Contact Information

The main information displayed in a user's profile includes their Name, Role, Email Address, Profile Picture, and any other Standard Fields or Custom Fields that are filled out when editing the user's profile. 

The Address field, displayed on the right-hand side of the profile, is clickable into an interactive map option integrated with Google Maps. You also have the option to go into Street View or to Go to Google Maps in a separate tab that will open up.

In the same area as you see the Address will be two other buttons that you can toggle between to access different information related to the user.

The three line icon will open up Properties related to the specific user, including a time and date stamp for Last Login, Last Updated, and Created Date as well as the names of those who updated and created the user respectively.

Underneath the Properties icon is a three person button that will list the role(s) that the user has been organized under.

At the top of the page, above the Name displayed of the user, are the following buttons:

The SysAdmin will be able to test functionality of role-based portals, security, etc by emulating the session of a user with a lower-level role than SysAdmin. You will be able to know you are emulating a session of another user as there will be a banner at the top of your page that states, "You are viewing the system as [User Name]."
  • History > Login Details: Displays the date and time stamp of the user's last login, their browser and system version, and the last IP address of login.

  • Properties > Roles and Access: Displays modal window to allow changes to system access, adding or removing roles, enabling Global User Administrator roles, setting login restrictions and more. For more information see our Activating a User page. You can also set and send passwords from here.
  • Settings > Configuration ModeAllows SysAdmin users to enter into a direct editing mode; changes to fields can be made directly, and a pop-up of Configuration Shortcuts will allow more in-depth configuration of several functions. 

Note that Configuration Mode will only appear under the Options button when you are in Edit Mode. 


On the top right of the user's profile information are four other buttons:

Profile key buttons.png 
Key Icon - Activate/Deactivate a User Clicking this button will allow a SysAdmin to either activate or deactivate a User. If the icon is greyed out, the user is deactivated - they will be unable to login to SmartSimple even with the correct credentials. The same key icon appears next to user names on the organization hierarchy and can be used to easily activate a user
Lock Icon - Personal Data Processing Information Clicking this button will open a modal window that explains the usage of Email and Office Telephone information (Personal Data Processing Information). 
Star Icon - Add to SmartCard Clicking this button will allow you to add this user to a SmartCard
Double Square Icon - Enable Dock Clicking this button will switch your viewing access into a split-screen mode, in which the left-hand side menu tabs will be "docked" on the right of the page, while the profile is displayed on the left. You may close this split-screen mode at any time by clicking the icon.  

Example of Organization Profile Page

There are different components to an organization's profile page: a left-hand side menu, the main contact information for the organization, the category or categories to which the organization belongs, and the organization properties.

  • Note: The left-hand side menu will contain different tabs depending on the organization - there may be varying terminology related to  Level 1Level 2, and/or Level 3 entities, for example.

Organization Information

The main information on the organization profile will display the Organization Name, Website, Phone Number, and Primary Office Address. 

Just like with the user profile, the organization address is clickable into a map-viewing mode through Google Maps and can be seen in Street Mode or opened into a new window. 

In the same area as you see the Address will be two other buttons that you can toggle between to access different information related to the user.

The three line icon opens up the properties related to the organization.
