Managing Users in Bridge

*Note* If you are a self-hosted client, you can manage your users in the active directory your company has set up. However, if you need to add additional Bridge users for support and product download access, you can do so from here. 

The users section of Bridge allows administrators to manage logins for their users. Navigate to Users by clicking on the  Bridge menu in the upper right. The user's page will list all current users from your company.

This article covers: 

  1. Search & Filter Options
  2. Creating New Users
  3. Managing Users

Search & Filter

All users will be displayed in a list in the center of the page. Use the search bar at the top and the filter options on the left to limit the users that are displayed: 

The icon shows users that are set as administrators. Only administrators can access the users page. 



Create a New User

When you need to add a new user to the system that will need unique settings, utilize the following steps. If you want the new user to have the same settings as an existing user, you can save time by using the copy user option. 

  1. Select the Create New User button at the top of the user section to add a new user
  2. Enter the following information:
    • First & Last name of user
    • Email address
    • Username
  3. Create a password or email a generated password:
  4. Select permission levels:
    • Type of User: This should be related to what job they will be doing (ex. payroll clerk or service rep).
    • Branch: Select the main branch they will be working out of.
    • Hierarchy Level: Select their starting hierarchy level (for more information see Hierarchy).
    • Hierarchy Level Allowed: Select the highest hierarchy level they will be allowed to get to (ex. admins may need access to system but a recruiter may only be restricted to a specific branch or entity).
    • Bridge Administrator: If the new user will also be an admin in Bridge, select the checkbox for Bridge Administrator.
  5. Select "Submit"

*Note* Newly created users within Bridge will not have access to Enterprise enabled via apps.ontempworks.com by default.

If you require your new users to have access to Enterprise, you will need to wait 15 minutes after the user has been created and then navigate to the user within Bridge, select "Edit", and select the "Enterprise Access" checkbox:

A couple other points to note surrounding Enterprise Access:

  • For users utilizing Report Builder services, they will need the "Enterprise Access" box checked.
  • In the event a user has the "Enterprise Access" box checked and does not log into apps.ontempworks.com within 30 days, the user will have their "Enterprise Access" box unchecked, and an Administrator will need to re-enable access.

*Note* The password must be unique and at least 8 characters in length. In the event a password is entered that is not unique or is less than 8 characters in length, an error will be received.
