Getting started: Admin & Owner guide
Everything an organisation owner or admin needs to set up qr-manager.ai for their team — inviting members, managing roles, configuring folder access, and connecting enterprise features.
Understanding roles
Every member of your organisation has one of four roles. Roles control what each person can see and do.
| Role | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Owner | Full control: billing, settings, SSO, SCIM, all QR codes, members, and reports. |
| Admin | Same as Owner except cannot change billing or delete the organisation. |
| Manager | Can see all QR codes in their accessible folders, view reports, manage their team. |
| Member | Can create and manage QR codes only in folders assigned to their team(s). |
Setting up your organisation
Upgrade to Pro or Enterprise
Organisation features (teams, member management, folder restrictions) require a Pro or Enterprise plan. Go to qr-manager.ai/upgrade to activate.
Invite members
Go to Org Admin → Members → Invite member. Enter the email address and choose a role. The invite expires after 7 days — resend from the members list if needed.
Create folders for your QR codes
From the dashboard sidebar, click New folder. Create a folder hierarchy that matches your team or campaign structure — for example:
📁 Marketing
📁 Q1 Campaign
📁 Events
📁 Operations
📁 Signage
Granting access to a parent folder also grants access to all child folders within it.
Create teams and assign folders
Go to Org Admin → Teams → New team. Add members to the team, then assign which folders the team can access. A team with no folder assignments has unrestricted access to all QR codes.
Test access as a member
Use a test member account (or ask a trusted team member) to verify that folder restrictions are working as expected before rolling out to the whole organisation.
Managing members
All member management lives in Org Admin → Members.
- Change role: Click the role badge next to a member's name and select the new role.
- Remove member: Click the three-dot menu beside a member and choose Remove. Their QR codes remain active.
- Pending invites: Shown at the top of the members list. Resend or revoke as needed.
Teams & folder permissions
Teams control which QR codes Members and Managers can see. Admins and Owners always have full access.
Default team
Every new member is added to your org's default team automatically. The default team typically has no folder restrictions.
Restricted teams
Assign one or more folders to a team. Members of that team will only see QR codes in those folders (and their sub-folders).
Multi-team membership
A member on two restricted teams sees the union of both teams' folders. One unrestricted team grants full access.
SCIM groups (Enterprise)
SCIM-provisioned groups from Okta or Entra ID map to teams. User provisioning and team membership are automated.
Reports & analytics for admins
ProOwners and Admins have unrestricted access to the Reports page — it shows combined analytics across all QR codes in the organisation.
- Filter by date range: 7, 30, or 90 days.
- See which QR codes are performing best and drill down into individual analytics.
- Export a CSV summary (one row per QR code) or raw scan events for offline analysis.
- Managers see only the QR codes in their accessible folders — useful for team-level reporting.
Single Sign-On (SAML 2.0)
EnterpriseSSO lets your team sign in with their corporate identity provider (Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace, etc.) instead of maintaining separate qr-manager.ai credentials.
- Go to Settings → Single Sign-On.
- Copy your ACS URL and Entity ID into your IdP's application settings.
- Paste the IdP metadata XML (or SSO URL, certificate, and Entity ID) back into the SSO form.
- Enable JIT provisioning if you want new users created automatically on first login.
- Test with one user before enforcing SSO for the whole org.
SCIM user provisioning
EnterpriseSCIM automates creating, updating, and deactivating user accounts when people join or leave your org. Requires SSO to be configured first.
- Go to Settings → SCIM Provisioning.
- Generate a SCIM token — copy it immediately.
- In your IdP, configure SCIM 2.0 with Base URL
https://qr-manager.ai/api/scim/v2/Usersand the token as Bearer. - Test with a single user or group, then enable for all.
