User Profiles

Modified on Wed, Oct 16 at 12:23 PM

Martus offers the flexibility of creating multiple profiles for a user that allows you to assign more than one set of roles and permissions to a user. Secondary profiles allow a single user to use Martus with different user permissions and dimension restrictions. 


Reasons to create multiple profiles for one user include

  • The HR Director will need access to all of the Personnel but should only be able to access the Planner Worksheets for her department
  • The Department Director will need to view Financials across multiple locations but should only be able to edit worksheets in one
  • The Martus Admin will need to review a report with only three out of their five departments shown


Creating a Secondary Profile

  1. Go to Setup > Users
  2. Click Edit next to the user that requires a secondary profile
  3. Go to the Profiles tab
  4. Enter a name for the New Secondary Profile and click Create Profile


  5. Click on the new profile just created shown in blue


  6. Assign Roles and Permissions as desired 
  7. Assign Dimension restrictions as desired


Switching Between Profiles

  1. Log in to Martus
  2. Click on the user name in the top right corner of Martus


  3. Click on the appropriate profile


Important Notes About Profiles
