It is recommended that the following steps be done in the order presented to avoid repetition of previously completed system setup. Depending on which WorkMax modules you have purchased or how you may be using the system, some steps may not apply.


Step 1: 
Integration/Data Import
 

When deciding how you want to get your information into WorkMax (Employees, Locations, Tasks), there are several options.  You can import the data via integration with your accounting software or via a .csv (Comma Delimited) file. You can also manually add this information into WorkMax as described in steps 4 through 6 below. 

If you are integrating your accounting software with WorkMax you will need to download and install our integration Software, ConnectMax.  During the implementation of your WorkMax system your assigned Customer Success Advisor will work with you to complete the integration between your accounting software and WorkMax.


Note: For importing of data, please contact us at 801-465-8181 for assistance.

Step 2: Modules 
           Here you will set up company level settings, such as Permissions or Permission Profiles. The availability of Module settings is dependent on which WorkMax modules you have purchased.

Step 3: User Roles

            

       This is where you would create various user roles that will allow, or restrict, certain features within the WorkMax system. These user roles can then be assigned in Employees.

 

       Note: You will need to create at least one User Role for each module you will be utilizing 

       even if you are an administrator with only 1 license per module.
