To do list

Directly below your avatar image, you will be able to review your list of items that require action. If they're complete, you'll see a line through the item. Otherwise, be sure to click into the item and complete the required action.



Availability

Be sure to update your availability so your clients know when you can take on more tasks.



  • Click the Edit button below the calendar
  • Click on the start and end date of any dates you are unavailable. The dates will show red until you select the end date, and then turn white. Your client may also periodically ask you to update your availability via email or SMS notification.


Messages

The messages tab is where you'll manage all communications with your client. You will receive an email notification when they've sent you a message, which will take you to this tab for review and response. 




Your account is equipped with side bar menus to help you navigate between functions. Hovering over the icon in the left side bar will display the function it is related to. Clicking the icon will display related options. Note: if you have a pending action item in any of these functions, you will see a red indicator here.



Important note: Your client may use different labels for the items below. Please note the icon shown in each section as a reference.




Marketplace


In the Marketplace tab, you'll find all the opportunities you've been invited to and have responded to (note: your client may call opportunities by a different name, such as job openings in this example). If you don't see anything there yet, don't worry! You will receive an email notification when you've been invited to participate. Your client may also have a portal where they post open opportunities for all to apply to. Be sure to check out the job board tab.

Tasks & Projects


All the projects & tasks you are working on will be listed in this tab. You will be able to respond to invitations, submit your timesheet or invoice and upload project deliverables in one location!

Payments


Your payments tab gives you the opportunity to upload new invoices, review current and past invoices, monitor payment status and export past payments.

Onboarding & Workflows


This tab is where you'll find all the workflows you have been invited to. You just completed one workflow with onboarding, but your client may use a separate workflow for banking information and opportunity submissions. You can review them all here.

Documents


You will find all the agreements you've signed, documents you have uploaded and any files associated with your profile here.

Settings & bank information

You can access your settings menu by clicking on the avatar in the lower left corner of your screen. This is where you can update items such as your email address, banking information, tax information and other settings.
