    Overview

    The TrekkSoft system has the option to create a multitude of User Accounts. The benefit of this is your employees, agents, accountants, editors, etc can all have their own individual access. Having their own individual access also means they will only be able to access the sections they require. We have the following roles that you can setup for the users:

    • Administrator (aka mandator)
    • Employee
    • Technical Employee
    • Accountant
    • Agent
    • Editor
    • Guide
    • User without password

    Remove A User Account

    It is not currently possible to physically remove a user from the TrekkSoft system. If you no longer need a certain user in the system, you can: 

    • Edit the user's details and replace them or
    • Add an email that does not exist e.g. delete@mycompany.com

     

    To edit the email of a user, follow these steps:

    1. Go to your Admin Desk (e.g. yoursite.trekksoft.com).
    2. In the top right corner, click on Merchant Settings> Users & Employees.
    3. Next, click the 'Edit User'.
    4. Scroll down to the user's email address and enter 'delete@mycompany.com'
    5. Click the 'Save' button.

    Note: The user will no longer be able to log in but the account will remain for any previous bookings that were completed.
