Administrators can control which users can access specific features in NexHealth by assigning roles or custom permissions.

For use with all NexHealth products.

Overview

Edit a user's permissions

1. Go to Users in Settings.

Click the gear icon in NexHealth and select Manage users.

The gear icon is in the upper-right.

Note: If you do not see the Manage Users tab, you are not an Administrator. Contact your office administrator or NexHealth Support if you believe this is a mistake.

2. In the user’s menu, select Edit user.

Click on the ellipsis (...) to the right of the user's name and select Edit user.

From this menu, you can also delete the user or resend their login invitation if needed.

3. Edit the user’s details.

The options are the same as if you were adding a new user.

Create or edit a role

Roles are collections of permissions that can be applied to multiple users (e.g., Front Office Staff, Regional Manager).

1. Go to Roles and permissions in Settings.

Go to NexHealth settings, then select Roles and permissions in the left-hand Settings sidebar.

Find settings via the gear icon.

2. Click +New role or Edit an existing role.

You can either use +New Role from the top right or Edit an existing role.

3. Edit the role values, then Save.

You can assign or change the role name and select the permission level for each feature. Then, click Save.

Use radio buttons to select permissions.

* A note on Translations:

Users with Admin (Manage) access to edit Forms, and/or User (Edit) access to Campaigns, and/or Templates may add, remove, or edit translations for individual components. In order to bulk translate (or bulk remove translations), a user must have all of the following permissions:

  • Admin (Manage) access to Location Management

  • Admin (Manage) access to Forms, if you are a Forms customer

  • User (Edit) access to Campaigns, if you are a Campaigns customer

  • User (Edit) access to Templates, if you are a Templates customer

A Locations Admin will see the option for Translations, but will encounter an error message upon trying to bulk translate if they do not have the required permissions to edit all translatable pieces.
