For a user who only needs to be able to post offering deposits to ParishSOFT Accounting thru integration but who does not need to work in ParishSOFT Accounting set up the account as follows:

  • In the Church Manage tab on the Users page, use the Add a New User button to set up the login.

    • Give the user the Role of a church user.  For details on adding a new user see How to add a new user
    • You may want to add information to this login by adding the words integration user to the First Name field.

    • See the instructions below on how to set up permissions.
  • Do not give them their login information.
    • You may want to add your own email address to this user's credentials so if the forgot password option is ever used, the email will come to you (the administrator).

 

How to set up permissions for an integration login

  1. In the Church Manager tab, go to Permissions and select the user you just added in the Quick Find dropdown.
