About Users

Every person recorded in your accessplanit platform is stored as a ‘User’, this includes training administrators, course trainers, the people who attend your courses, and the people who book your courses.

Storing people’s information in your accessplanit platform as Users means that you have a centralised, real-time list of contact information that your administration team can all access and maintain! This centralisation ensures that you can track user activity easily, have control over the different levels of access each of your Users have when they log in to your accessplanit platform, and supports you with meeting security and compliance requirements.


Benefits

Here are the benefits of storing Users in your accessplanit platform

Centralised List of Users

Having a centralised list of all User information can help your administration team to maintain and see in real-time up-to-date customer information from one place.

Configurable and Customisable

To support your ways of working, Custom Fields can be created to ensure you are storing all useful and relevant information needed about your Customers, and Configure Forms can be used by Super Admins to define what information is mandatory for your Users.

Tracked User Activity

Delegate records, Booking records, Invoicing and User award records all link back to Users. By having a list of all Users, you can track their activity all from one place!

Access Control

Training Administrators can control whether your customer Users are Managers or Individuals to define their access level when they log in to your platform, additional ‘restrict bookings’ is available where needed to prevent specific people from being able to make course bookings.

Security / Data Protection

To support Security & Data Protection, your accessplanit platform has support for MFA logins to protect logins and data, additionally you can anonymise User data when their information is no longer necessary without deleting their record and their history.
