Admin Module Overview

Use the Admin Module, accessed on the TME ClearView toolbar to manage user and Employee lists. You can create User and Employee records, assign Users to Employees, edit, and delete records.

Your view of information is based on your login level. You can view all Users or Employees of all the Organizational Hierarchy below you. For example, an NMSC user level can view all Users and Employees of all hierarchies below it, that are specific to the NMSC.

Terms in the Admin Module

The terms Users and Employees are capitalized in this section because they have a specific meaning when used in the Admin Module, and they are defined in this section. In the following definitions, the actions referred to such as create, edit, assign, and delete are described in step-by-step procedures in the following Help topics:

Definition of Users

Users are login credentials that include User name and a password, and they can be created at any level in the organization. You can assign active and inactive Users to Employees or you can create new Users to assign to Employees.

Definition of Employees

An Employee is a person employed at the Retailer level in the organization hierarchy. To grant an Employee access to the ClearView portal, you can create a new Employee record in the system and assign the Employee record to a User. You can also assign an existing Employee to a User.

Definition of Auto-Created Employees

Employee records are auto-created in the system when an import file contains an Employee code that is not yet in the ClearView system. The system auto-creates a User and it remains inactive until it is assigned to a User and activated by someone having access to the Admin Module.

Examples of Assigning Employees to Users

Review the following two examples of assigning Users in the Admin Module.

Example 1

Employee A was assigned to User A, then Employee A left the ClearView system. User A is now inactive and no longer works because no Employee is assigned to it. Later, you create a new record for Employee B and assign the inactive User A to Employee B. This action disconnects the Employee A record from User A, and reassigns Employee B to User A. You can edit the User A record to match the name of Employee B.

Example 2

In the Master User List tab, you filter your view to see the inactive Users. You notice the inactive User record Joseph Black. You view the Employee List tab and select the Employee record for Mary Romero and assign her to the Joseph Black User. You can now return to the Master User List and edit the Joseph Black User record to display as Mary Romero.

Organizational Diagram of Users and Employees

The following diagram shows the organizational difference between an User and an Employee. As shown in the diagram, an Employee is included under the Retailer level in the hierarchy. Users can be at any level in the hierarchy.

 

 

Overview of Admin Module Tabs

The Admin Module provides the following three tabs for viewing data.

Master User List Tab

The Master User List includes all Users existing in the ClearView portal. You can search for Users, change your view from all users, to active, inactive, or deleted Users, and edit and delete Users. Also, Users are added to the Master User List if the following occurs:

Auto-Created Employees User List Tab

If the system does not recognize an Employee code in an import file, a User is automatically assigned to the new Employee code. The User is then listed in the Auto-Created Employees User List tab. The Users in this tab are all inactive. You can create a User, and you can either edit a User and make it active, or assign it to a different Employee. Once the User is active, it is listed in the Master User List.

Employee List Tab

The Employee List tab lists all the Employees in the system along with their Retailers. The Users assigned to each Employee are also shown in the list. You can change your view from all to assigned or unassigned users. You can create an Employee record and assign a user to it, and also edit and delete an Employee record.
