Adding team members

Note: Only the account Owner and Users with Manage users and permissions can add team members to an account.

    Users can have full or customized access to Katana functionalities and data, while Operators only have access to the Shop Floor App.

  4. Click on Add a new team member.

  5. Choose either a User or an Operator.

Adding Users

First, send an invite link by adding the team member's email address.

If the email address is already connected to an existing Katana account, you won't be able to invite the user to this account (only one Katana account can be associated with an email address). Contact us via chat or at [email protected] with any questions or requests if you need this changed.

Default or custom access can be given to an invited User. Read more about user permissions.

Once invited, a team member's status is Pending until they've accepted the invitation and signed up to Katana. If you're unsure if a team member received the invite email, click Resend to send another. If a team member reports that they are not receiving the invite, you can copy the invitation link by clicking Copy link and send it to them.

Adding Operators

Add the name of the Operator and create a 6-digit login code. Read more about adding Operators.
