Setting User Profiles & Permissions #
User profiles and permissions are managed in Company Settings inside Propel Your Business.
Important Distinction #
There are two different areas that often get confused:
Team Module #
- Used for:
- Org chart
- Job titles
- Departments
- Does NOT grant access to the software
Company Settings → Users #
- Used for:
- Inviting users
- Activating accounts
- Setting permissions
If someone is in “Team,” they are not necessarily a user in the system.

User Roles #
There are two primary roles:

Setting Permissions for a User #

- Configure the three permission toggles:
1. Access to Company Goals #
