Security Profile(s)
Assign the appropriate security profile(s).
⚠️ At least one security profile must be selected.Note: The above 5 items are required for all Nimbello users, below we'll go over some optional fields. - OCR Access
If the user needs access to the OCR module:
-
Assign the OCR security profile.

Email support@nimbello.com so the backend OCR connection can be completed.
-
- SSO Identity (If Applicable)
If your company uses Single Sign-On (SSO), you must enter the correct value in the SSO Identity field. This value varies by organization depending on your SSO setup, but often is entered as the user's email address. - Vacation Setting

➡️They will be skipped in approval routing.➡️If they are the final approver, the invoice will route to an AP Admin for review.
- Approval Group Limits
If the user will be in a Limited Approval Group, you must set a Max Limit.-
This is the highest dollar amount the user can approve across all of their approval groups.
-
Set the Max Limit to match the largest group limit they belong to.
Example:
John is in three groups:-
$10
-
$100
-
$5,000
John’s Max Limit should be set to $5,000.
-
Final Step
Click Save to create the user.
You can update security profiles and user details later if changes are needed.
