As a Property Manager or Tenant Manager, you can manage user access through the Users menu. This includes adding new users, updating roles, and re-sending invitation links when needed.

Adding a New User

  1. Navigate to the Users Menu
    Go to the Users tab in the platform and click Create.

2. Enter User Information
On the Create User page, fill in the user’s:

  • First Name

  • Last Name

  • Email Address

3. Assign Role and Access Level
Decide what level of access the user should have, then assign them a Role and associate them with the appropriate:

  • Building

  • Tenant

  • Lease

  • Area

Please click the + Example Role to assign it to the user. Once you see it drop down under the Selected Role Summary, it will allow you to save and close.

Access Levels Explained

  • Building Role: For Property Managers or Building Engineers. Grants access to the full building.

  • Tenant Role: For users representing a tenant. Grants access to all areas assigned to the tenant (e.g., suites 200, 300, and 400).

  • Lease/Area Roles: Best for subtenants. Limits access to a specific suite or area only (e.g., suite 400, without access to the main tenant’s other suites).
    Note: Contact Genea Support for help setting up subtenants properly.

User Roles Explained

  • Tenant User: Can place HVAC requests and view activity history.

  • Tenant Manager: Can place HVAC requests, view activity history, add other users, and see billing statements once approved by Property Managers.

4. Send the Invitation
Click Save & Close. The user will receive an invitation email from Genea.
Note: The invitation link expires after 24 hours. See instructions below to resend an expired link.


Removing a User
