Note - This feature may not be available in your portal.

Branch permissions allow account admins to manage access to various areas in the portal based on the branches that are assigned to a specific user. This allows account admins to better control the information other users can view and the operations they can perform.

For instance, If you want some users to only see POs created for a specific branch, you can use this feature to control that access. To see a complete list of how branch assignment is enforced, click here. If you have users reporting that they are not able to see certain information in their account, it could be because of the branch assignment rules being enforced.


Admins can configure user branch assignments by doing the following:

1- Log onto the Home page of the portal.

2 - Go to Gear button > User Manager (menu bar on the top right).



3 - Scroll down to the Update Users section to see the list of users. 

4 - Find the user to configure the branch assignment. Click on the three dots and select Edit Branch Permission.



5 - From the Edit Branch Permission screen you can select Full Access or Apply Supplier Branch Restrictions, and select which branch/branches you want the user to have access to. Selecting Full Access will provide access to all available data in the portal.

• By default, All Branches are assigned to all users. This gives the user access to all branches/company codes your customer is sending data. If you are missing a customer branch from this list, please, contact your customer to confirm your branch/company code enrollment.
• Assigning specific branches to users will give them access to POs, invoices, payments, etc. from the assigned customer branch only. 

The information below shows how branch permission is enforced:
