Describes how to grant Texada Web and/or Texada Mobile service or logistics manager access to an existing SRM user.
Context
Enable an SRM user to access Texada Web to allow them to access Texada Web and/or Texada Mobile to take advantage of their functionality.
Note: This article covers the minimum required steps to create a service manager, logistics manager, or other user and grant them Texada Web and/or Texada Mobile access. For more detailed coverage of creating a user, see “Create a Texada Web User in SRM”.
Divisions and Locations
The division and location the user is assigned to during the process is vitally important. You can enable a user to view the information related to one, some, or all divisions and locations in Texada. Setting this up for a user has a dramatic effect on the data they have access to. See “Add a Texada Web and/or Texada Mobile User to Multiple Divisions in SRM” for more information on how to add a user to multiple divisions.
In addition, when setting up a user for multiple divisions, you have the ability to set different security roles for each division, giving you full flexibility in terms of what your users can see and do in Texada Web and/or Texada Mobile. For example, a user might have permission to edit a work order in one division, but only view work orders in another. See “About Permissions and Menu Access in Texada Web and Texada Mobile” for more information on controlling what users can see and do.
Drivers and Technicians
When enabling a driver or technician user, there are additional steps required for each role that are not required for the other roles. These steps add the driver(s) or technician(s) to any driver or technician selection dropdowns in certain parts of Texada Web and/or Texada Mobile, such as work orders or tickets.
- See “Enable an SRM User to Access Texada Web and/or Texada Mobile as a Technician” for more information on how to enable access as a technician user.
- See “Enable an SRM User to Access Texada Web and/or Texada Mobilec as a Driver” for more information on how to enable access as a driver user.
