Users

Information for portal user accounts can be entered and modified here as well as from a brokerage user's CSR or producer detail or from an insured's contact detail within CSR24 Utilities. Changing the information in one area automatically updates it in the other.

From the Admin Home screen, or from the Portal Admin menu on the left side of the screen, click Users.

In this area you can add users, edit existing users, copy users, export users, import users, or delete users.

Export Users

The Portal user export provides you a means to view your clients’ portal account details without having to review this information on an individual basis.

When you use this export, the client’s Portal account details are exported to a Microsoft Excel file. These details include such information as their email address, user group affiliation, portal account username, start page, app screen, assignment, and administrative rights. The export also includes general user information such as last login, if/how long the account has been locked, account creation date, and if the end user notice has been accepted.

You can make any needed updates to the exported file and Import the list to apply these changes. When you have made the desired changes, click Export. A prompt displays, asking whether you wish to open or save the document. Select the appropriate option to complete the workflow.
