Members / Contacts Page - Common Page
The Members / Contacts page allows you to assign members and contacts to your entity. A Member is any Lucernex user with a unique login ID and password. A Contact is anyone who should be contacted about the entity.
Get started with Lucernex user security
These are generic procedures that are common across all or multiple areas of Lucernex. As such, these procedures do not call out specific navigation to the page.
We recommend managing membership on portfolios and programs and leveraging the Default Access to user class security settings in most cases. Following this recommendation will require less of your System Administrator’s time and your user security permissions will be easier to maintain. For example:
-
Flor’s user class gives her default viewing rights to contracts.
-
Flor is a member of the Orchid portfolio.
-
The Orchid portfolio has 4 projects, 10 facilities, and 10 contracts.
-
This means that Flor can see 10 contracts in Lucernex.
-
A Lease Admin adds a contract to the Orchid portfolio, meaning there are now 11 contracts in the portfolio.
-
Flor can now see 11 contracts in Lucernex.
If you have questions about when membership should be managed on individual entities, please contact your Professional Services team or Support.
Assigning a member allows that member to access specific folders and documents within the entity record. A member is any Lucernex user with a unique login ID and password. Before a member can have access to any part of an entity record, you must first set up that member in your firm. This must only be done once for each Member.
