NOTE: The Admin area is only accessible by administrators; only Global User Administrators can perform the functions detailed on this support page.

 

How do I create a new Position?

Navigate to the "Positions" admin page, then:

If you want to create a new Position and have it automatically placed in a Folder:

  • Click on the folder’s name so that it is highlighted blue.

  • Click  in the top right corner of the page.

  • In the resulting drop-down menu, click .

 

If you want to create a new Position without having it automatically placed in a folder:

  • Click  in the top right corner of the "Positions" page.

  • In the resulting drop-down menu, click .

 

In the resulting window:

  • Enter the name of the Position.

  • (**Optional**) Add a description. This description will appear when you hover over the Position when editing or creating a user. This is helpful if you want other User Administrators to understand to what exactly the Position refers before they add it to someone's profile.

  • (**Optional**) Choose an icon (follow the given instructions to find an appropriate icon). This icon will appear next to the Position when editing or creating a user or filtering a list of users. It's helpful for when people are quickly skimming a long list of Positions.

  • (**Required only if you chose an icon**) Pick a color for the selected icon.

  • Click  to create the Position.

 

How do I create a new Position folder?
