Authorise access to organisation account information

  • Updated

Trusted Admin user permission allows access to organisation information on SignSpace. Trusted admin has access to all the spaces owned by an organisation and can add and remove space/group members.
By default, no one has the Trusted Admin rights. The person who registers an account becomes the Main user. Main users can then create a new authorisation request for the Trusted Admin role (for themselves or for someone else in the organisation).
The process ensures that only the users authorised by the legal representative of the organisation can have access to all the information owned by the organisation.
Clicking "Authorisation" under +New menu opens a pop-up to create a new authorisation. This option is visible only to Main Users of the organisation.

Once the authorisation request is signed by the authoriser(s), its status changes to IN VERIFICATION and an automated verification task is assigned to the Authority Verification group, which is a SignSpace back-office function. The authoriser’s authority to represent the organisation legally is verified manually by the group. Processing of the verification may take max. one week. Once the verification is completed with positive outcome, the authorisation request status changes to APPROVED and an email notification is sent inform about the approval.

If the authoriser(s) do not have the required authority, the authorisation request status changes to REJECTED and an email notification is sent to the request creator and the signatories.
