15.3. Managing User Accounts
Managing Accounts
After account creation, we now show you how to manage them. Each management function available to use will be discussed in detail.
To begin, make sure you have the List User Accounts option selected on the Admin Options Panel.
Now focus your attention to the action panel on one of the accounts under your organization.
The action buttons are divided into topics explaining how they work.
Deactivate
Deactivate – The account is deactivated, making it unusable. The account is not deleted, instead, it is tinted with a bright pink red to indicate it is deactivated.
Note: Accounts are never deleted. If you wish to have an account completely deleted and removed or reactivated, contact our support helpdesk at help@docusketch.com.
Edit
Edit – This option allows you to edit important account information like username and password.
The only difference between an office account edit screen from a user account edit screen is the fact that user accounts has an Office drop down option that allows you to reassign the user to a different Office account.
Other than that Phone numbers, address, may be added and edited along with the account’s login credentials.
An email can also be sent to notify the account holder.
Click on the Submit button when done.
Settings

Logos & Styles
This tab allows you to customize the branding for this account. Let us discuss each option here in detail.

When clicked on, a hotspot will transport you to the next picture or room, helping users navigate and preview rooms. You can upload any graphic from arrows, to pin icons to little logo icons at will.

Permissions
Permissions – This option allows you to customize the permissions for each account. Note: Deactivating certain permissions for an account can render that account user unable to use certain functions in their account.
Let’s discuss each option in detail.
- Edit – Putting a check in this box disables the user’s ability to edit tours on their account. Editing a tour consists of clicking on the edit button on the tour options panel allowing you to modify the tour. Here you can rename, add and delete images, including hotspots, and other tour modifications.
The account user would no longer be able to edit the tours on their account.
- Delete – This option disables the user’s ability to delete a tour. A tour is only deleted permanently when the tour is archived and is under the archived tours page.
This is an example of an Archived tour. Pay attention to the Delete button here.
Once you disable the Delete option for this account, notice how there no longer is a Delete button on this archived tour.
- Share Access – Putting a check mark on this option disables the user’s ability to share tours.
- Connection – This option has a check mark in the box by default. This function is rarely used.

- Statistics – This option is also disabled by default. This function grants statistical data for viewers viewing the tour. This option is rarely used.
- Live Session – Putting a check mark in this box disables the users’ ability to do live sessions on the account. The Show Live button on the tour option panel will disappear when this permission is disabled.
