Sign up / Log in / User permissions

Signing Up

If your organisation has SSO enabled for the Forward Works Viewer, it’s easy to log in – you don’t need to sign up. 

Type your email address into the Log In field.

• If you have been given access by your organisation, you will be authenticated and you will be able to log in without setting up an account. 

• If you have not been given access by your organisation, an error message will pop up.  You’ll need to contact your organisation’s IT department to request access to the system 

If your organisation is not using SSO and you don’t yet have an account:

1. 1. Click ‘Register Now’
   2. Fill in the form
      
      1. Check that your organisation doesn’t already exist in the Organisation drop down options. If it definitely doesn’t, type in your organisation. 
   3. Select your user type
      
      1. Business User – this is view only access.  You will be able to see projects belonging to all organisations in the FWV, but you will not be able to add projects directly to the system, or edit your organisation’s projects in the system
      2. Project editor – this user type means you will be able to add and edit boundaries and transport impacts to projects belonging to your organisation that already in the system, but you cannot add a new project to the system.  You will be able to see projects belonging to all organisations in the FWV.  This type of access is handy for organisations who supply data from sources of record which do not have project boundaries supplied, as it means your users can add boundaries to the projects, but cannot edit any other detail of the project. 
      3. Project planner – this user type means you will be able to create projects within the FWV, and add/edit boundaries and impacts to projects. You will be able to see projects belonging to all organisations in the FWV.  This type of access is handy for organisations who do not have a source record of projects, and need a method of publishing projects to the FWV.
