Collaborators
When you have several people accessing your Pelcro account, it's best to have separate collaborator accounts set up for each person. As a site owner, you have the option of adding more users or "collaborators" to your account. These collaborators might include functions, or members of your staff, who would typically help you manage the day to day tasks related to your business.
For example, you may want to add members of your sales team to keep track of their corresponding customers, or maybe include members of your customer service team to keep an eye on support tickets. It's entirely at your control. This section will walk you through account and site collaborators, and how to use them to streamline your subscription management operations.
Collaborators are only available for Professional and Enterprise plans. Please check out our pricing page or contact your Pelcro account manager for more information.
Collaborators Access Control
Leveraging Pelcro's access controls associated with each collaborator, you can assign a different set of access levels for each available site, or even specific sections of a site. This is particularly useful when you want to let other people access your account, without giving them access to sensitive information. Having collaborator accounts can also help you to keep track of recent changes and events.
Collaborator accounts can have one of the following predefined role levels, along with their corresponding permissions. Permissions can be customized for enterprise clients.
Role | Permissions |
---|---|
Admin | Allows unlimited access to your Pelcro account. The collaborator member can manage the account and the financial information. |
Support | Allows limited access to your Pelcro account. The collaborator can view customers, billing, tickets, newsletters sections, e-commerce products and subscription products. And can also manage e-commerce orders. |
Agency | Allows limited access to your Pelcro account. The collaborator can view import section. |
Sales | Allows limited access to your Pelcro account. The collaborator can view the customers, subscriptions, eCommerce, coupons, and import sections. |
Listing Collaborators
You can access your site collaborators section by expanding the top right navigation menu under your name. From the dropdown menu, choose settings, then select Collaborators. When you arrive at the collaborators section, you'll see a list of your current site collaborators. Each line item will include the collaborator's name, email address, permission level and status.
The status of the newly added collaborators can be either:
- Active → Collaborator has accepted the email invitation and either added a new password or authenticated using their existing password.
- Pending → Collaborator has not clicked on the magic link sent in the email invitation yet.
Viewing Collaborator Details
If you're logged in using the collaborator account, all you need to do is expand the top right navigation menu under your name. From the dropdown menu, choose profile. Depending on the collaborator role you select, you might see some optional information fields which are relevant to the role. For example, if you're viewing a Sales Representative, you will see a field to add the commission percentage which is tied to them.
