Paradigm Mobile: Overview
This FAQ will go over the Paradigm Mobile App. It can be downloaded from the Google Play Store or the App Store. More information on the app can be found in the FAQ Article Paradigm Mobile Add-On.
Setting Up Users in Paradigm Mobile
Paradigm Mobile supports two types of logins: Customer Portal users and Employee Web users. Each login type provides different levels of access within the app. To give access to the Mobile App, the correct entries will need to be created within the company website administration, and configured based on whether the user is a customer or an internal employee.
Customer Portal Login Access
When signed in with a Customer Portal account, users can be set to enable viewing most information, but are not able to view tasks. For complete instructions on managing Customer Portal users, see the FAQ article Create Employee Web Logins.
Employee Web Login Access
Employee Web Users can be created, updated, or removed through the Edit Employees window. Employees can view tasks within the mobile app, as well as be linked to a driver.
Selecting the Driver
If the user is a driver, select the corresponding driver from the drop down. If a driver is assigned, the user will have access to the delivery feature. More information on setting up Employee Web logins see the FAQ article Create Customer Web Logins.
Changing App Settings
At the bottom of the Details window for Employee Web logins and Customer Portal logins, the App Settings button opens the window for adjusting the permissions that the login will have within the Mobile App. To change which parts of the app the user can access, click to open the window, and check or uncheck the box beside each feature as needed.
