Overview

Add a Service Provider to your company, assign site access at creation, and automatically invite them to the Forsite Portal to complete onboarding.

Steps

  1. Open Companies
    • Go to Companies (Service Providers landing page).
  2. Click [+ Add Service Provider]
  3. Search first
    • Use Search by company name.
    • If the provider exists, select it (no duplicate needed).
  4. Create a new provider (if not found)
    • Click + Create Service Provider
    • In Create Service Provider:
      • Enter Company name (required).
      • Choose Sites (multi-select or Check for all). (This assigns site access on creation.)
      • (Optional) Enter address (Unit, Number, Street, Suburb, City, Post Code) and select Country (required).
      • Enter Company contact details: First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Phone Number (all required).
    • Click Continue. An automated email is sent to the contact. (The sender will be CC’d.)
  5. Follow-ups (optional)
    • On Companies, you can Select one or more providers and click Send Reminder Email, then choose a preset.
    • For custom templates, contact customersupport@getforsite.com.

Troubleshooting

  • I can’t see the “+ Add Service Provider” button → You dont have permission to add providers, contact your admin.
  • Duplicate company warning → If search finds an existing provider, open it rather than creating a duplicate.
  • No sites visible to assign → You only see sites you have access to. Ask your company admin if a site is missing.
  • Invite not received → Check spam, confirm the contact email, or send a Reminder Email from Companies.
