Add a contact
You can add contacts in order to allow them to log in and administer your Sitoo Backoffice. These contacts, depending on the access rights, will be able to administer both your Webshop and cash register. You can control the access rights for each contact.
- Log in to Backoffice > Contacts
- Click the add icon in the left corner
- Enter an e-mail adress. This will be used for logging in to Backoffice.
- Enter a password. This will be used for logging in to Backoffice.
- Enter PIN. Pin codes are used to logging in to the cash register.
- Assign access rights.
- Assign the contact access to one or several warehouses that they should be able to administer. Specifically for "Store staff", login is allowed in all stores if no specific warehouse is selected.
- Assign the contact rights to perform refunds on the card terminal and logging in to Mobile Dashboard.
- If the contact is a reseller you can allow them to log in to the reseller portal on your webshop by checking Website Login.
- Enter the user information for the contact. The most important fields are first name and last name.
- Assign relevant tags. Tags makes it easy to administer your contacts.
PIN and password
Any contact that is going to log in to BackOffice needs to have a password. Complexity requirements is:
- At least 8 characters in length
- At least 1 uppercase letter (A-Z)
- At least 1 lowercase letter (a-z)
- At least 1 number (0-9)
- At least 1 special character (!?§@#$&*%()[]{}=_+~-)
The PIN is for the POS and needs to be unique for each contact. It is important that all contacts use the same amount of numbers in their PIN. Either four or six digits, not a combination of the two.
If you and your staff have been using four digit PIN codes and someone request a six digit code, all of you need to update your PINs.
Two-factor authentication
You can enable Two-factor authentication for contacts who are assigned access rights of Administrator or Staff. The two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security for your Backoffice. The contact needs to both know the password to their contact, as well as have a secondary device on hand that provides a log in code.
- Make sure your contact exist and that it has access rights to Backoffice.
- Download the app Google Authenticator on your smart phone.
- Log in to Backoffice > Contacts > Search for your contact.
- Click Activate.
- You will be presented with a QR-code on the computer screen. See image below.

You can reach out to Sitoo Support to request an enforcement setting for the use of MFA by TOTP on all current and future users in your BackOffice(s). Before enforcement you should inform your current BackOffice users well in advance and assure that they have and know how to operate an authenticator app.

You can group your users manually with a tag. By using tags you can easily search for specific contacts in your Backoffice.
Creating tags

- Enter the name of your tag, for example Store staff > Save.
Tag users
You can add a tag by editing a contact but you can also perform tag assignment in batches. Follow the steps below.

Add External ID
Many functions within Sitoo, as well as integrated services, use the External ID field on the contacts. Any value can be added, such as "1", just make sure that you have a corresponding value configured for any potential integrations.
