Dynamo. The business engine.

Administration

Users, roles and seats

Invite people, give them roles, understand seats, and remove access without losing history.

Add a user

Users → New (or the Invite your team checklist step). Enter the e-mail and name; the person receives a link to set a password (or signs in with your organization's SSO).

Roles decide what people can do

Every app comes with roles, for example Accounts User / Accounts Manager, Sales User, Projects User, HR User, Stock User. Give people the roles for their work — they then see the matching apps in the launcher and can only open the records those roles allow.

  • Role profiles bundle roles for a job ("Accountant", "Site engineer").
  • User permissions restrict a person to particular companies, projects, customers or warehouses.
  • The display mode (Simple / Advanced) only changes what is shown; it never grants permission. Settings, roles and the "All tools" groups appear in Advanced for administrators only.

Seats

Your subscription includes a number of seats. Apps & subscription shows who uses them:

GroupTakes a seat?
Active users (have signed in)Yes
Invited users (not signed in yet)Yes
Disabled usersNo
Service accounts (integrations, API)No
System accountsNo

Adding an enabled user when every seat is in use is refused; disable someone or request more seats from Apps & subscription → Add seats.

Removing access

Disable the user instead of deleting it. A disabled user cannot sign in and frees the seat, but everything they created stays, with their name in the history. With SCIM (see Sign-in, SSO and two-factor authentication), people removed in your identity provider are disabled automatically.
