Before you start

To be able to add or update users or their permissions, you will need to have Organisation Administrator role assigned to you. When you login to Timetable 2.0 and can see Admin along the top navigation, you have Organisation Administrator permissions.


If you don't have Organisation Administrator permissions, please see the Timetable system administrator at your school.


Add users

To add users, go to Admin User management and select Add new user:

  1. Type in the user's details. 
  2. Assign the role/s they require permissions for.
  3. Select Add user.
  4. You'll be asked to check that the details for the user are correct, select Cancel to return to fix details or Add user to confirm.


You have added a new user to Timetable 2.0.


Update users or their permissions

To update user details or assign them different roles, go to Admin User management and select the three dots under actions for the user you wish to update:

  1. Select Edit to update their permissions or Remove access to revoke their access to Timetable altogether.
  2. If you selected Edit, make any changes to the user's name or email.
  3. Assign any additional roles or remove any that do not apply anymore.
  4. Select Save changes.
  5. You'll be asked to confirm any updates to the user's role/s are correct, select Cancel to return to fix details or Update role/s to confirm.

You have now updated user's role/s in Timetable 2.0.
