Convert a guest into a member

How to change a guest into a member

What you need

  • Administrator permission level.
  • The person must already be a guest user in your Tallyfy account.
  • You need an open spot (an available member seat) in your subscription plan.

Why change a Guest to a Member?

Changing a guest into a member gives them more access:

  • They get full access to Tallyfy based on the role you give them (like Standard or Light).
  • They can create and manage processes.
  • They get their own login and password.
  • They can see more than just the individual tasks assigned to them.

Steps to change a Guest into a Member

  1. Go to Settings > Organization > Guests.
  2. Find the guest user you want to change in the list.
  3. Click Convert to member in that guest’s row.
  4. Tallyfy will automatically:
    • Move the person from the guest list to your members list.
    • Send them an email asking them to set up a password.
    • Give them the default role of Standard member.

What happens next

  • The person will need to create a password the first time they log in as a member.
  • You can change their role (e.g., to Light or Administrator) if needed by going to Settings > Organization > Members.
  • This person will now use one of your paid member seats instead of counting as a free guest.

Members > Convert a member to a guest

Administrators can convert active members to guests by deactivating their account and changing their status which limits their access to only assigned tasks through guest links.

Members > Change the role of a member

Administrators can modify member roles between Administrator Standard and Light levels through the organization settings to align with users’ required access permissions and responsibilities.

Members > Invite and activate members

Administrators can invite new members to join by sending email invitations with role assignments while invitees must activate their accounts through a secure setup process.

Org Settings > Remove a member

Administrators can remove organization members through Settings by deactivating their account and reassigning their pending tasks to other active members.
