Accessing Admin Settings

Admin settings are available to users with Administrator role. Click the "Admin" or "Settings" icon in the top navigation bar.

Organization Settings

Company Profile:

  • Organization name and logo

  • Contact information

  • Company description and capabilities

  • Certifications and accreditations

  • Key personnel and roles

This information is used by AI when generating tender responses to ensure accurate representation of your organization.

Branding:

  • Upload company logo

  • Set brand colors

  • Configure document templates

  • Customize email signatures

User Management

Adding Users:

  1. Navigate to "Team" on the left sidebar.

  2. Click on "Team"

  3. Click "invite user"

  4. Enter email, name, and if the user shall be an admin

  5. Click on "Send invitation".

User Roles:

  • Administrator: Full system access — manages users, roles, security settings, integrations, templates, billing, and licenses. Can reset passwords for other users via Settings → Team Management.

  • Manager: Can create projects and manage team members within projects. Cannot access organisation-level settings.

  • User: Can work on assigned projects — view and edit content, upload files, create chats, and collaborate with the AI.

  • Viewer: Read-only access to projects and documents. Cannot edit content, upload files, or create chats.

Managing Users:

  • Edit user details and roles

  • Reset passwords

  • Deactivate accounts

  • View user activity

  • Manage licenses

Resetting a user's password (admin-initiated):

  1. Go to Team in the left sidebar.

  2. Find the user in the list.

  3. Click the three dots (⋯) next to their name and select Reset password.

  4. The user receives an email with a reset link, valid for 24 hours.

If the user does not receive the email, ask them to check their spam/junk folder and confirm their email address is correct. If your organisation uses SSO, password resets are managed through your identity provider, not through TenderB.

Guest Users vs. Workspace Users

TenderB has two levels of user access that work differently:

Workspace User

Guest User

Invited via

Team → Invite member

A specific project → Settings → Team

Appears in

Global Team overview

Project team list only — never in the global overview

Can access

All projects they are assigned to across the workspace

Only the specific project they were invited to

Role

Administrator, Manager, or User

Project-level access only

Common issue: If you invite someone as a guest first and then try to invite them as a workspace user, the invitation will appear to succeed but the user will not appear in the Team overview and may not receive the new email. This is because their guest account blocks the workspace invitation. To convert a guest to a workspace user, contact TenderB support and provide the user's email address — the guest account needs to be cancelled first before a full workspace invitation can be sent.

Removing a user from a team: When you remove someone from a team, you may see a notification saying the account is "scheduled for deletion" or "locked out". This refers to their access to that team only — if the user is still a member of another team in your workspace, their overall TenderB access is unaffected. Contact support if colleagues lose workspace access after being removed from a single team.
