User Management
FlowForth provides a user management page where organization administrators can view team members, change roles, and control access. This guide covers managing existing members — for inviting new users, see Invitations.
Before You Begin
You need the Organization Admin role to manage users. See Understanding User Roles for more information.
Accessing User Management
- Click Settings in the main navigation menu.
- Select User Management to open the management page.
Dashboard Overview
The top of the page shows a summary of your team:
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Active Members | Users who can currently log in and use FlowForth |
| Inactive Members | Users whose access has been deactivated |
| Pending Invitations | Invitations that have been sent but not yet accepted |
| Expired Invitations | Invitations that passed the 7-day acceptance window |
A progress bar shows your seat usage — how many of your plan's available seats are in use.
Viewing Members
The member list displays all users in your organization with:
- Name — The member's display name
- Email — The member's email address
- Role — Administrator or Employee
- Status — Active or Inactive
- Joined — The date the member joined the organization
Changing a Member's Role
- Find the member in the list.
- Click the role badge or the Change Role action.
- Select the new role: Administrator or Employee.
- Confirm the change.
| Role | Permissions |
|---|---|
| Administrator | Full access to settings, user management, reports, invoicing, and all features |
| Employee | Access to daily workflow features like activities, routes, and clients |
You cannot change your own role. Another administrator must do this for you.
Deactivating a Member
Deactivating a member removes their ability to log in without permanently deleting their account:
- Find the member in the list.
- Click the Deactivate action.
- Confirm the deactivation.
The member's data, activity history, and assignments are preserved. You can reactivate them at any time.
Reactivating a Member
- Find the inactive member in the list.
- Click the Activate action.
- Confirm reactivation.
The member regains access with their previous role and settings.
Reactivating a member uses one of your available seats. If you are at your seat limit, you will need to upgrade your plan first.
Removing a Member
To permanently remove a member from the organization:
- Find the member in the list.
- Click the Remove action.
- Confirm the removal.
This frees up a seat on your plan. The removed user immediately loses the ability to log in — with a password or with Google or Microsoft — and sees the same "account deactivated" message as a deactivated member. Their existing FlowForth account is kept, so the removed user can be re-invited later if needed.
Re-inviting a Removed User
- Send a new invitation to the same email address from the Invitations page.
- The user opens the link in the invitation email. Because they already have an account, FlowForth shows an Accept your invitation form instead of the registration form.
- The user enters their existing password and clicks Accept invitation.
- The user is sent to the login page and can log in again with the role assigned in the invitation.
The pending invitation reserves a seat until it is accepted or expires.
Deactivated members cannot be re-invited — they are still part of the organization. Use the Activate action instead.
Deactivate or Remove?
| Deactivate | Remove | |
|---|---|---|
| Can log in | No | No |
| Stays in the member list | Yes, as Inactive | No |
| Uses a seat | No | No |
| How to restore access | Click Activate | Send a new invitation |
| Role on return | Previous role is kept | Role chosen in the new invitation |
Use Deactivate for a temporary absence or when you expect the person back. Use Remove when the person has left the organization.
