Adding a new user

  2. Navigate to the People tab.
  3. Click on the "Add New User" button.
  4. Enter the required information for the new user.
  5. Click the "Save" button to add the new user to the system.

Tips and Considerations:

  • Fields marked with an asterisk(*) are mandatory for your organisation.
  • Double-check the information entered for accuracy, the people data is used to deliver the correct content.

 

How to enable/disable a user 

  1. Navigate to the People tab on the top navigation bar.
  2. Select any user and click View More to enter their profile.
  3. Go to User Management.
  4. Toggle the Active/Deactivate User button.
  5. A modal will appear, allowing you to either disable or suspend the user.
    • Disabling a user: The user will no longer use the tool and will not be automatically re-enabled.
    • Suspending a user: You can select a date for when the user should be reactivated to start receiving questions from the system again.
    • Ensure you press Save

Why would you Disable or Suspend a user?

  1. A user will no longer be using Cognexo (removing a user from the system and therefore disabling their account).
  2. A user is on Short term or long term sick
  3. A user is on Maternity/Paternity

 

Suspending a user in the line manager dashboard

  3. Choose your reason, select the date until and Save
