What is the quick-add tool?

The quick-add tool has been created to allow you to quickly and easily make changes to some or all of your providers' settings. 

For example, if you want to update the pay rate for multiple providers at the same time, you can use this tool without having to go and update each provider's settings from their dashboard.

To use the tool, please go to:

Providers > Providers

Then, click on the orange "Quick Add" button at the top right corner of the page.

The "Quick Add" pop-up will appear. At the top of the pop-up, you can select "All" to make changes to all provider settings.

If you select "Specific", you can search and select specific providers to update their settings.

If you select "Browse", a pop-up will allow you to browse through a list of providers and select the ones you'd like to update.

Once you've selected the providers, you can use the tabs in the section below to make changes to their settings.

 

Profile

Under the "Profile" tab, you can update the provider's default category to "Contractor" or "Employee" by checking the box next to "Default Category" and then picking an option.

If you have any reimbursements set up, you can check the box next to "SA" (for "service area") or "ML" (for "merchant location") to set a new reimbursement amount for your providers.
