Invite a User
For: Admin | Tier: All plans
Adding someone to your Tellus account takes less than a minute. You send an invitation, they click a link, and they're in — with the exact level of access you choose.
Steps
- Navigate to AdminHQ from the main menu
- Click People in the sidebar
- Make sure you're on the Users tab
- Click
Invite Userin the top-right corner - Enter the person's email address — this becomes their login
- Enter their full name
- Select a role from the dropdown:
- Administrator — Full access to everything
- Manager — Site-level management
- Program Coordinator — HazCom program oversight
- Trainer — Course creation and training management
- Employee — View chemicals, complete training
- Viewer — Read-only access
- Contractor — Limited site-specific access
- Consultant — Multi-company admin access
- Optionally, assign the user to one or more sites — if you skip this, an Admin can access all sites by default; other roles will need site assignment later
- Click
Send Invite
The user receives an email with an invitation link. The link is valid for 7 days.
What Happens Next
- The invited user appears in your Pending Invites list until they accept
- Once they click the link and create their account (or log in with an existing one), they move to the Users list with their assigned role
- If the invitation expires, you can resend it from the Pending Invites page
Tips
- Double-check the email address — Invitations go to exactly the address you enter. Typos mean your teammate won't receive the invite.
- Choose the right role upfront — You can change it later, but starting with the correct role means the user sees the right features from day one.
- Assign sites for non-admin roles — Employees, Contractors, and other site-scoped roles need at least one site assignment to see any chemical data.
