-
1Go to Admin → Contacts Administration.
-
2Search for and open the user's contact profile.
-
3Activate the Access & EDIT button.
-
4Toggle to Both so that the user has access to the simplified view AND the traditional, detailed view.
-
6Click Save.
Example: Turning on the Simplified Dashboard flag in the Contacts Admin panel.
Tip: Start with one team, review usage and feedback, then roll out broadly.
What's Next
To unlock mountain-moving results with the Simplified Dashboard, it's strongly recommended that Presto Administrators (aka Super Users) and Team Managers / Supervisors review and agree on the permissions per license type across the three roles: Users (Staff), Supervisors, and Administrators. Align at the management level on which roles have edit, create, and delete capabilities.
-
Users (Staff) - can close tasks (tick boxes) and leave notes.
-
Supervisors - can create and delete task lists, and create projects.
-
Administrators - control configuration, license governance, and access policies (e.g., default views and restrictions).
Ensure Team Leaders understand these differences and collectively decide the right mix for each team before roll out.
Recommended roll out approach: Start with a small pilot group → gather feedback → refine permissions → scale organization-wide for best results.
