Invite New User

Click New User and follow the steps below to invite a staff member to create a BEACON account.

TIP: Users who need access to both BEACON and EyeOnWater must use unique email addresses for each system.

  1. Enter the user’s full name, email address (required) and, if desired, phone number.
  2. Use the drop-down menu to choose a role. Predefined roles include Admin, Support, Installer and Manager. Custom Roles created using the Roles tab will also be displayed. The table below describes the permissions granted to each predefined role.
  3. Click Invite User to complete the process. Click Cancel to start over.
