Adding additional admins

Two ways to give someone admin access in Comprehensive: update an existing user's role, or invite a brand new admin.

There are two ways to make someone an admin, depending on whether they already exist in the system.

Option 1: The user already exists (e.g. synced via an integration)

If the person was already imported through an HRIS integration, they'll show up in your employee list - you just need to change their role.

  1. Find the user in the list

  2. Change their role to Admin

  3. They'll now have full admin access

Option 2: Invite a brand new admin

If the person doesn't exist in Comprehensive yet, you'll need to invite them.

  1. Go to either:

    • Onboarding page → click the "Invite other admins" card in the Account section

    • Manage Users page → click "Invite admins to Comprehensive"

  2. Enter their email address and full name (you can add multiple at once)

  3. Click Send invites

  4. They'll receive an email with a login link - once they accept, they're in as a full admin

Good to know

  • All admins have equal permissions - there's no "super admin" vs. regular admin distinction

  • Any existing admin can invite or promote additional admins

  • If someone was synced from an integration, you don't need to re-invite them - just update their role
