Adding & Managing Team Members

Vendor Admins can invite additional users to collaborate within their vendor account.

Invite a Team Member

  1. Navigate to Team Members Tab

  2. Click Add Member

  3. Enter the user’s name and email address

  4. Click Add Team Member to send the invitation

Once sent, the user will receive an email invitation to set up their Parts Portal account.

Managing Team Members

  • Existing users can be deleted using the trash can icon under the Actions column next to their name.

  • Existing users and their statuses can be set as "Active" or "Inactive".

  • Changes to access take effect immediately.

Vendor Roles & Permissions

Parts Portal uses role-based access to control what actions users can perform within a vendor account.

Vendor Admin Role

Admins have full access to the platform and are responsible for managing system-level settings.

Permissions include:

  • Managing team members and user roles

  • Creating and editing customers

  • Managing parts, suppliers, and operations

  • Configuring pricing, lead times, and other system settings

  • Viewing and responding to all RFQs, quotes, and orders

✉️ Notifications: Admins receive system-wide notifications for RFQs, quote activity, and orders.

Vendor Team Member Role

Team Members can support day-to-day quoting and order management but have limited administrative access.

Permissions include:

  • Creating and editing customers

  • Managing parts, suppliers, and operations

  • Configuring pricing, lead times, and other system settings

  • Viewing and responding to all RFQs, quotes, and orders

⚠️Limitations: Team Members cannot manage users or edit their company's profile.

✉️ Notifications: Team Members do not receive notifications related to the RFQs, quotes, and orders they are involved with. If more than one person needs access to the email notifications, we suggest using a group email address for the username.

Profile Management & User Settings

All vendor users can manage their individual profile settings.

From the Profile Settings area, users can:

  • Update their name and contact information

  • Update company details

  • Change their password

  • Access Instant Help - Click the "?" icon located in the top right header (next to your profile icon) to access the Help Center and support documentation directly from any page.

⚠️ Note: Email addresses are tied to login credentials and cannot be edited directly. If an email address needs to be changed, contact [email protected] for assistance.
