### **Setting up a new event**

If you've used pickAtime before, you **don't need to create a new account** — simply create a new event under your existing account (e.g., "Health and Wellness 2026").

##### **Recommended order:**

1. Create the new event **first**.
2. Delete the old event **afterward**, if you're not reusing its data.

<p class="callout info">Creating the new event before deleting the old one preserves your settings — **Online Scheduler Settings**, **Notification Setup**, and **CUI Messages** — by carrying them over.</p>

### **Administrator Information**

**At the beginning of each year you should plan to remove any old admins and add new admins.**

**To add an Admin**

<div class="gmail_default" id="bkmrk-navigate-to-contacts"><div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger force-compact-layout enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr" id="bkmrk-navigate-to-contacts-1">1. **Navigate to Contacts:** In the Admin UI, go to the **Contacts** page.
2. **Add New Admin:** Select the **Add &gt; Admin...** button.
3. **Enter Details:** Fill in the user information on the *Add New Contact* form.
4. **Set Access Level:** In the **Admin Level** pull-down menu, select **Appointment Viewer**.
5. **Save:** Click to finish.

</div></div>**Note:** If you see a red message stating *"Vendor already has a contact with this email,"* do not panic. Click the blue **Go back** button and use the **Search** tool to find the existing contact by name.

##### **Assigning Specific Access**

Once the contact is created or located:

<div class="gmail_default" id="bkmrk-go-to-the%C2%A0vendor-acc"><div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger force-compact-layout enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr" id="bkmrk-go-to-the-vendor-acc">- Go to the **Vendor Access** tab.
- Locate the specific **Event** and **Teacher** this person needs to monitor.
- Click the **checkbox** next to the name to grant report access.

</div></div>##### **First-Time Login Instructions**

You can provide these steps to the new admin to help them get started:

<div class="markdown markdown-main-panel tutor-markdown-rendering stronger force-compact-layout enable-updated-hr-color" dir="ltr" id="bkmrk-url%3A-go-to-pickatime">- **URL:** Go to [pickatime.com](https://pickatime.com/).
- **Step 1:** In the **Login** section, enter your email address and press **Login**.
- **Step 2:** On the following page, you will be prompted to create a unique password for your account.

</div>##### **To remove an old Admin**

1. **Navigate to Contacts:** In the Admin UI, go to the **Contacts** page.
2. **Locate the Contact**: do a search for the contact by first or last name or by email.
3. **Delete the Contact**: Click on the Contact's name and click the DELETE button.

### **Contact Information**

**What happens to contact data between events**

Contact information — including login credentials — is **retained across events** and is **not deleted** when you delete an event. This means:

- Participants can log back in with their original email and password.
- Participants who've forgotten their password can use **Forgot Password** on the login page.

**If you'd prefer participants create fresh accounts each time** (e.g., for annual conferences), you can manually clear old contact data.

#### **How to remove all previous contact information**

2. Click **Show Advanced Options**.
3. Click **Remove All Customers**.
4. Select the access level to delete from the pull-down.

##### **Access levels (from broadest to narrowest):**

<div class="overflow-x-auto w-full px-2 mb-6" id="bkmrk-level-who-it-include"><table class="min-w-full border-collapse text-sm leading-[1.7] whitespace-normal"><thead class="text-left"><tr><th class="text-text-100 border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.6)] py-2 pr-4 align-top font-bold" scope="col">Level</th><th class="text-text-100 border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.6)] py-2 pr-4 align-top font-bold" scope="col">Who it includes</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Customer access</td><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Participants</td></tr><tr><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Appointment Viewer</td><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Admins who only need to see event reports</td></tr><tr><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Appointment Maker</td><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Admins with Appointment Maker access</td></tr><tr><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Resource Administrator</td><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Admins with access to a select group of teachers</td></tr><tr><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Event Administrator</td><td class="border-b-0.5 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)/0.3)] py-2 pr-4 align-top">Admins with access to one or more events</td></tr></tbody></table>

</div><p class="callout success">Important: Deleting a given level also deletes every level below it on this list. For example, deleting Resource Administrator also deletes Appointment Maker, Appointment Viewer, and Customer access (Participants).</p>
