User

A user is someone who has access to your Zoho Practice organization. An organization in Zoho Practice can have multiple users.

Role

A role refers to the level of accessibility that a user can have in an organization. In Zoho Practice , we have standard roles like Admin. You can clone this role and create custom roles as required for your organization.

To know more about these roles:

Go to Settings on the top-right corner of the page.
Select Roles under Users & Roles.

The default roles in Zoho Practice cannot be edited or deleted. Want to create your own role? Try Custom Roles.

Add User

When you create a Zoho Practice account, you become the default admin of your organization. Once you are an admin, you can add multiple users with different roles to your organization. Here’s how you can do it:

Go to Settings on the top right corner of the page.
Select Users under Users & Roles.
Click Invite User on the top right corner of the page.
Enter the email address, name and the role of the user you’re going to invite to your organization.
Click Save.

After doing so, an email will be sent to the new user, from where they have to verify the link and set up a login password to access your Zoho Practice organization.

Note: Only Admin users can add new users.

Edit User

After you have added a new user, you can edit their data if required. Here’s how:

Go to Settings on the top right corner of the page.
Select Users under Users & Roles.
Click Edit.
Make the required changes and click Save.

Note: Only Admin users can edit user information.

Custom Roles

Apart from the standard roles (such as Admin, Staff, etc.) in Zoho Practice , you can add additional roles with different levels of access. These roles are called Custom Roles.

To add a custom role:

Go to Settings on the top right corner of the page.
Select Roles under Users & Roles.
Click the New Role button in the top right corner of the page.
Select the modules and the level of access you want to provide for the role.
Click More Permissions for additional access options.
Click Save.

Additional Fields for Users

By default, the details about a user in Zoho Practice includes their name and email address. If you want to add more details apart from this, you would have to create additional fields for users.

To create an additional field for users:

Go to Settings on the top right corner of the page.
Select User Preferences under Users & Roles.
Select the Field Customization tab on top of the page.
Click the + New Custom Field button in the top right corner of the page.
Enter the Label Name, select a Data Type for it, and fill in the other required details.
If the field that you’re going to add is a Personally Identifiable Information (PII), mark it as such under Is this PII?
Click Save.

This new field will be saved under the Field Customization tab. You can perform different actions on it by hovering over the field and clicking the Edit or drop-down arrow next to it.

The custom field(s) that you create under Field Customization will be shown while adding a new user to your organization.

Mark User as Inactive

Sometimes, you might want to restrict a user from accessing your organization. In such a case, you can mark a user as inactive. You can make the user active again if you wish.

To mark a user as inactive:
