What is the difference between an Administrator and a User?Show
The administrator can:
- Perform work pass transactions in WP Online.
- Grant access to the company’s employees as WP Online Users.
- Terminate Users’ access if they leave the company or no longer need access.
You should appoint a second administrator. This will minimise any disruption to your business in case one of the administrators is not around or leaves the company.
To access WP Online, ensure both conditions are met:
- You must be an active Corppass Admin or User.
Ensure Work Permit Online (WPOL) and Work Pass Account Registration (WPAR) is listed as one of your assigned eServices. Otherwise, contact your Corppass Admin User or Sub-Admin User to assign the eService to you.
- You must be an active WP Online Administrator or User.
If you are not an active WP Online Administrator or User, contact your WP Online Administrator to add you through ‘Manage User Access’ in WP Online. If you only have 1 WP Online Administrator and the person has already left the company, you must submit a request to change administrator immediately.
