Inviting Other Administrative Users

At any time during your use of MERIT, you may find the need to invite additional people to help administer your company information, employee list, or payroll activities.

You can invite a colleague from within your company or a third-party provider, like a bookkeeper or someone from your payroll provider. Please only invite individuals who are authorized to take action on your company's behalf. During your initial company onboarding, you can invite a new administrator by selecting the Invite someone to help with payroll or administration button.   

During the onboarding flow, you'll always find that link on the bottom, right-hand side of your screen.

From the "Manage Admin Team" screen, adding a new administrator is as simple as entering their email address. To get started, select the Add Teammate button.

Add Teammate button

In the "Add Teammate" pop-up box, enter a valid email address for the new administrator. Then click the Send Email Invite button.

Adding your teammate's email

You will be brought back to the Manage Admin Team screen, where you will see the status of any added teammate. 

Admin Invite Status

Each person you invite will be sent an email asking them to register for your company's MERIT portal. 

Sample email: 

Welcome to MERIT email example

Once they complete their registration, where they set up their login ID and password, they will be able to act as an administrator. If needed, you can always resend the email invitation by clicking the Resend Invitation button. 

Once your invitee has set up their login credentials, you will see their status as "Registered." You can delete a registered user if you decide they should no longer have access.

After you've completed your company onboarding, you can add or delete administrators in the "Company" tab, by selecting Manage Admin Team.
