Do a screen print of this area monthly so as to keep up with new documents. More movies will be coming online as well. But this is a HUGE resource on How the websites work.

D Add New Agent
User Manager
Adding new agent is a simple task. 1. Account Information: Give the new agent a user name
and password ♦ User name would be the first and last name of an
agent. All lower case and one word. Such as Mary Smith would be marysmith.
♦ Password is only set to access for the first time. The agent will assign a new password themselves. We suggest the Administrator provide the following password as generic and always use it. Example: password1234
2. General User Information: This is seen on the website so please complete this properly. NOTE: The assosi-cate ID is the Franchise ID for the new associate as this MUST be provided.
3. Personal market Area: Do not fill this out as the office zip codes will be placed in here automatically. However make the new agent aware that they must put in their own.
4. MLS Information (Agent MLS ID): IF the administra-tor knows this number then go ahead and enter it. If not let the associate follow the beginners setup guide and enter this number in. This number is different from the Associate ID which is RE/MAX. The MLS ID is the identification for the MLS and ties the agent listing to their website and their photo will be attached on all websites.
5. User Type: Always leave this at the default “Sales Asso-ciate, website-Sales Associate” as this provides for a website and leadstreet system connection.
6. Contact Information and General Account Settings: Do not fill this out but have the new agent go thru the beginners setup guide to complete this information.
7. Select: Add User Information

User Manager-How to remove an agent
R emove an agent and what happens to the leads?
If an agent is leaving RE/MAX completely you MUST put their account On-Hold. NOTE: Before Placing an agent On Hold, you must submit a Termina-tion in Frames. After the Frames termination is re-ceived, a regional staff mem-ber will delete the agent from Leadstreet. Once the agent is deleted from Leadstreet, all of their leads will roll up to the office account as Pending Leads. 1. To place the agent ac-
count On Hold, select the agent name from the User Manager tab.
2. Once the Agent profile is open scroll down to User Account and click on the box titled “Account On Hold”.
Note: This will freeze the account until the regional staff receives the termination and permanently removes the agent from the system.
1
NOTE: 1. When the agent has been deleted all of their LeadStreet Leads will roll BACK to the office
Clients Manager area as PENDING LEADS. It is the responsibility of the Broker or Office Website Administrator to ACCEPT and “transfer” those leads back out to other agents within your office. DO NOT take the chance of loosing potential revenue for the agents.
