Users
A User has a user account and is identified in the platform by a username and a password. By default, the only available role is admin. Assign custom roles to new users and control their access capabilities.
Users can be viewed and updated from the Profile Menu. Go to the top corner of the dashboard's left-hand side. Click on your name to expand the list of options.

FAQs
Only the "SM_Admin" has the authority/ permission to change the user roles of any other existing user accounts. But the Administrators cannot change the user role for first administrator created for the account.
1. Check if the invitation is still valid as it will automatically expire after 72 hours, and resend the link if it’s expired.
2. If the link is still valid and user didn’t receive it in mailbox, please try resending the invitation link. If still couldn’t receive please troubleshoot following below steps:
- Whitelisted the email address "[email protected]."
- Added the domain "@powerboard.cba.com.au" to their allow list.
- Check your DNS configuration. Ensure that it's correctly set up to receive emails especially from powerboard.cba.com.au. Also, check if the cba domain is blacklisted using online tools that provide blacklisting information.
- On the domain configurations settings, the domain powerboard.cba.com.au might be on a blacklist due to previous abuse or suspicious activity, causing receiving email servers to reject emails from it.
- Review DNS config and update the DMARC Quarantine/Reject policy.
- Ensure there are no strict rules applied for the domain -powerboard.cba.com.au.
If the issue persists after performing above steps, please reach out to PowerBoard Merchant Support.
