In this article we provide general information about power users, as well as how to add and delete them.
What is a power user?
Only power users have full rights and permissions in Rentman. Only they can:
- Create, edit and delete projects
- Create, edit and delete invoices, contracts and quotations
- Export invoices, create payment reminders, change payment statuses
- Add crew members and edit the crew planner schedule
- Send crew invites and planning emails
- Access the settings Configuration module to configure advanced settings in Rentman
Note: Read the Frequently Asked Questions section on the bottom of this article for a list of features that you have access to if you are not a power user.
How many power users do I need?
The number of power users you need depends on whether they need the above-described rights to carry out their job. You can add or delete a power user at any time. Users that don't need these rights can be added to projects as crew members. These accounts are free in Rentman and are added by a power user.
Assign a power user role

How many power users does my plan cover?
- Go to the settings Configuration module > Account > Licenses
How many power user roles are currently assigned?
- Go to the settings Configuration module > Account > Licenses.
- In the Power users section, you can see how many and to whom the power user roles are assigned to.
In this example, 3 power user roles are currently assigned. If your plan covers 4 powers user roles in total, you still have 1 power user role left to assign.
Increase the number of power users
- Go to the settings Configuration module > Account > Licenses, and choose Edit license
- Input the amount of desired additional power users.
- Continue the process until your plan is successfully upgraded.
- You are now ready to assign the power user role to your crew member in the group Crew members module
Your crew member(s) will only have the correct rights and permissions once you've done this.
Decrease the number of power users
- Go to the group Crew members module, and double-click on a crew member with a power user role.
- Navigate to Login information > User role, select a non-power user role, and save your changes
- Go to the settings Configuration module > Account > Licenses, and choose Edit license
- Input the desired amount of additional power users.
- Continue the process until your plan details have successfully been changed.
Note: If you don't complete all of the above steps, you will still be charged for the current amount of power users covered by your plan.
Power users on a trial account
During the trial period, users can add unlimited power users to their account for free, without needing to adjust their license in configuration. Simply change a crew member's role in the crew members module, without modifying any configuration settings!
