Networks

Overview

You can organize businesses into a network, which is a great way for members of the businesses to collaborate, share resources, and teach/enroll in each other's courses. Each network has a description, one or more member businesses, one or more network administrators, resources, groups, and policies. 

To enable Networks, go to the App Center and install Network sites.

To see your current network settings click Admin/Network.

Creating

To create a Network, visit the Add tab, enter the name of the network, its password, and description, then click Save.

A new Business tab will appear with your company on the list.

To edit the Network information, such as its name, description, and password, visit the Overview tab and click the Edit button.

When you create a network, you are automatically its initial network administrator. 

Joining

To join a network, go to Admin/Network then enter the name of the network and click Search.

The matching networks are listed. To join a particular network, click its Join button.

Enter its password and click Join.

If the password was correct, a new Sites tab will appear with a list of the businesses in the network.

To leave your network, click Leave.

Businesses

To see a list of the businesses in a network, click Businesses. If you're a network administrator, you can visit any of the businesses by clicking its "Log in" icon. This changes the logo and color scheme with that of the business you're visiting, and the main tabs show you information related to that business.

A network administrator automatically has administrator rights to all the businesses in the network. To return to your own business, click Home.
