Company Overview

A user with the Company Administrator permission will have access to the Company submenu in the Home menu - . Note that this submenu is not available through the Quick Access pane. The Company submenu contains logs and settings that may be useful to the company administrator, whilst not providing access to the main system setup menus.

Note: Settings and changes made to the items in this submenu will apply to all the surveys administered by the company.

Figure 1 - The Home > Company submenu

The items available in the Company submenu are as follows:

• Company Settings - Company administrators can now change some settings for their own companies, such as Google Analytics account id,, set up security settings, change branding settings for Reportal etc.
• Default Survey Settings - default survey settings templates can be created for the site, company level, or for individual users. Then for example, if the same settings are used for all surveys created by your company, users will not have to go in and set them up for every survey (go to Creating Default Survey Settings Templates for more information). Once your company has one or more default settings templates available, the Use system default survey settings button becomes available to the users.
• Default Survey Data Template Settings - allows you to specify the default settings for new survey data templates (go to Survey Data Template Editor for more information). Refer also to the separate Data Processing User Guide for further details.
• Survey Messages - Authoring contains a large number of texts and messages of different types. These texts and messages are already translated into a number of "standard" languages (go to Standard Languages for more information), and you can specify that any of these languages are to be used by a survey. However you may wish to have the messages displayed in a language that Authoring does not provide as standard, or perhaps you wish to change some of the texts and messages to suit a particular survey or dialect. The Company Administrator can edit the messages for the entire company here (go to Survey Messages for more information).
• Transaction Usage Export - enables the administrator to export a log of the transactions performed by the company (go to Transaction Usage Export for more information).

This report shows the number of emails sent for the current company per month (go to Email Activity Log for more information). The report can be grouped by date, weekday, week, quarter or all.
