Create an external user
Add an external user to your system using the TotalAgility Workspace. Once you create external users, you can assign them as a member of floating roles, thus assigning work to them. The external users can log on to TotalAgility using their email address as the user name.
External users have limited access to the TotalAgility Workspace and can only access their own work queue. External users can only view, retrieve, and complete the activities listed in their work queue.
External users have no access to other TotalAgility applications nor are they listed under the Resources category.
