Which details are kept for a user and how do you confirm a mobile number?

Answer

For each user there are a name, address, phone numbers, email addresses, job description and language. You open your own details with the Profile button at the top right. Under the phone number you confirm your mobile number with Verify using a text message code; the owner also chooses there whether they want an SMS code when logging in on a new device.

Where to find it

Your own details: Profile button at the top right in the header, or /Account/UpdateUsers. Details of an employee: Settings > Your business > Users and permissions (/CompanyUsers), or via the Users list (/Settings/Users) and then the user (/Settings/Update).

Explanation

The fields are the same in all three places. Change what is needed and press Save. If you choose a different language under Language, the dashboard is immediately in that language after saving and you stay logged in. On /Settings/Update and /Account/UpdateUsers all fields are required except Last name, Place of residence and Country; an empty required field is marked red. You may only change a colleague's details if you may manage that user (see Users and permissions); your own details always.

  • Step 1. Under Personal phone number enter a mobile number, for example +31 6 12345678, and save.
  • Step 2. Under Verify mobile number press Verify. You receive a text message with a 6-digit code.
  • Step 3. Type in the code and press Confirm. You see Verified with the date (Verified on).
