Creating and Managing Staff Profiles in the Dandy Portal

This guide outlines creating and managing staff profiles within your practice's Dandy Portal. Creating profiles for various staff members, including additional doctors, dental assistants, hygienists, and administrative personnel, is essential for efficient case management. These profiles also allow individual staff members to create and maintain their own Portal login information.

Importance of Staff Profiles

  • Purpose: Staff profiles allow individual team members to access, customize, and utilize the Dandy Portal, making it a valuable tool for case management. They also allow each individual to create and maintain their own Portal login information.
    • Note: The account owner controls and sets staff admin rights.
  • Recommended Profiles: We strongly suggest creating profiles for every staff member who needs portal access, enhancing team coordination and portal efficiency.

    • Note: An invitation email will be sent to the listed address for each staff member. This email will walk the staff member through the process of setting up login credentials. The steps for this process are outlined later in this article.
