In many cases, the owner of a Worksnaps account is also the person who manages projects and places users into the projects. In other cases, an account owner might not be the same person who manages projects and users. For example, a finance manager creates a Worksnaps account and sets up the payment for the service, however the responsibility of setting up projects and users belongs to another person in the organization. In this scenario, the account owner can delegate managing projects and users to other people, while projects created by the a delegated person are still owned by the account owner therefore accounted towards the owner’s subscription quota.

Here is how to delegate managing projects to another user.

• Go to Manage >> Manage Users
• Edit the user whom you want to delegate
• Select Basic Info tab on the left
• You will see an option “Allow this user to create project on behalf of myself“. You can turn on the option.

Once this is done, the user (in the above example, Jane Stein) can create projects on your behalf. You can delegate up to 3 such users.

Here is how Jane Stein sees when she is trying to create a project. She will have a drop-down list to choose whether she wants to create a project for herself or for Jack Spear who allowed her to create project on his behalf.

Sometimes screen shots contain certain sensitive information and you want to have extra protection over them. Worksnaps now has a feature to allow you to blur the captured screen shot before being transmitted to the server. The blurred screen shot images will make it not possible to recognize the regular size texts, most typically texts with fonts of size 10-pt to 13-pt.  This provides an added level of security while keeping screen shot monitoring useful.

As a manager of a project, you can turn on the image blurring option for a user. The followings are the steps how to do it.

• Go to Manage tab and select Manage Projects.
• Go to Users tab, then go to User Settings in Project for a target user.
• In the middle of the User Settings page, you will find an option “Blur the screen shot images“. Check it to enable image blurring.
• Click Save Changes button to save the setting for the user.

Once this is done, the user will send the blurred screen shot images to the server.

Here is an example of the blurred image comparing to the original for illustration purpose.
