Creating an Invitation for Mobile Users

Note: Sage Mobile apps and associated Simple Time Entry functions require a subscription license for Sage 100 Contractor. For more information, contact your Sage business partner or your Sage customer account manager at 1-800-858-7095 or [email protected].

As the last step of setting up an employee to use the Time mobile app, you send them an invitation to use the mobile app to enter time. You use the Mobile users Invitation Setup window to create one invitation that you send to all mobile users. You need to specify:

  • Contact information for an employee who can assist mobile users.
  • Your company's user agreement that potential mobile users must accept.
  • The email account from which to send invitations.

The invitation will be sent to the email address you specify for an employee in their 7-2-3 Mobile Users record. It will contain a security key, the user agreement, links to download the app, some technical information, and the instructions they need to begin using the Sage Time app.

Before setting up invitations

Create a terms-of-use agreement that employees must accept before they can begin using the Time app. Save the agreement as a TXT file.

If you need assistance creating the agreement, consult your legal counsel.
