User Management

The Users section manages everyone who interacts with your asset inventory — employees who have equipment checked out, IT staff who manage assets, and administrators who configure the system.

User List

The users page displays a searchable, sortable table with:

• Name — The user's full name with avatar
• Username — Login username
• Employee Number — Your organization's employee ID
• Department — The user's department
• Manager — Their reporting manager
• Location — Primary office location
• Assets — Count of assets currently checked out to this user

Use the Search function [2] to find users by name, username, or employee number.

Adding Users

1. Click "Create New" [1] in the top navigation
2. Select "User"
3. Fill in: First Name, Last Name, Username, Email, and Password
4. Optionally assign a department, manager, and permission group
5. Click Save

You can also import users in bulk from a CSV file using the Import section.

User Permissions

Snipe-IT supports role-based permissions. Users can be assigned to groups that control what they can view and modify:

• Super Admin — Full access to all features and settings
• Admin — Can manage assets and users, but not system settings
• User — Can view their own assets and request new equipment
• Custom Groups — Create your own permission sets for specific needs

Viewing a User's Assets

Click on any user's name to see their profile page, which shows all assets, licenses, accessories, and consumables currently checked out to them. This provides a complete picture of what equipment each person has.
