4. Actions

Sales Group Managers have complete user management control over users in their sales groups. They can Activate, Deactivate, Mark Users Obsolete, and assign users to other Sales Groups. This ensures that Sales Group Managers can operate independently, without any reliance on Admin users to perform any of these actions. To enable this on your account, contact your account manager, or write to support@leadsquared.com.

To view the list of actions you can perform on a single user, hover your cursor over Settings icon.

ActionDescription
EditEdit all user fields.
DeactivateIn order to preserve the integrity of your marketing history, we don’t allow you to delete users. Instead, you can deactivate them. Users who’ve been deactivated, won’t be able to log into LeadSquared.

Note: Before deactivating a user you should ensure that all leads and tasks under the user are assigned to an active user. This way you won’t miss out on critical tasks you have to perform.

Reset PasswordAdmins can initiate the password reset process for any user including the passwords for other Admin users. For more information, see How can an Administrator user set password for other users?
Set PermissionsGives you granular control over permissions through permission templates.
Change PasswordRather than allowing a user to reset their own passwords, admins can use this option to set a password for the user.
View Lead AccessAllows you to view the lead access permissions of a user in accordance with the Sales Groups they are part of.
View Automation ReportIf you’ve setup user automations, this report shows you the path the user has taken through the automated workflow.
Configure HomepageAllows you to select either Dashboard or Smart Views as the homepage for the user.
Note: To change the email address associated with a see How to Change a User’s Email Address.

Hey! I have recently been provided with Administrator privileges. While removing obsolete users (that are not part of the organization anymore), I am encountering errors as in “being used in automation” . How do I get these users removed?

Hi Jodi,

You can directly reactivate the user. There’s no need to create the user again.

On the Manage Users page, filter for Inactive users and locate the user you want to activate. Alongside the user, click the actions icon, then click Activate. Here’s a screenshot that’ll help –

Hi Prashanthi,
The Manage Subscriptions page isn’t available to all users by default. You must get it enabled for your account. You can contact your account manager or write to support@leadsquared.com.

Hi Jill,
To reactivate a deactivated user, on the Manage Users page, filter the list of users by “Status: Inactive”. Click the settings Settings icon icon alongside the deactivated user, then click Activate.
Instead, if you want to mark the user obsolete and re-use the same email address to create a new user, see Mark Users Obsolete.
