Your Dashboard

The dashboard is the start page of the portal and gives you a complete overview of your Hyvä account:

  • Summary of your licenses, or your team's licenses if you're a team member
  • Recent orders and your personal details
  • Your default billing address
  • Your certifications, with options to add new ones
  • Team information, if applicable
  • Hyvä Partnership details, for managers only

Understanding User Roles and License Ownership

The Hyvä Portal works with two core concepts: who owns a license, and what team role you have. These are independent, so you might own one license while being a team member on another account.

License Ownership

Any registered user can own a license, regardless of team membership. License ownership is what matters for making changes to a license: only the owner can transfer it, change its domain, renew it, cancel automated renewal, or upgrade to Hyvä Commerce. See Licenses and Orders for how each of those works.

You don't need to belong to a team to own or manage a license. If you're in a team, you can still personally own licenses. Every license is attached to a single customer account.

Agency Team Roles

If your company is a Hyvä partner, you'll be added to a team. Team roles determine what you can see and do within team settings.

Members have access to:

  • Their own licenses and personal information
  • Licenses owned by other team members (visibility)
  • Verified email status of team members

Managers have all member access, plus:

  • Ability to invite and remove team members
  • Power to assign roles (upgrade members to managers, or demote managers to members)
  • Control over the company description and profile
  • Authority to manage technical support access

Only managers can update company information, manage team membership, and initiate support requests for paid licenses.

Combining Roles: Owner and Team Member

You can be both a license owner and a team member (or manager) at the same time. Your license management abilities depend on ownership, while your team management abilities depend on your team role. For example, a team manager might own personal licenses, see team licenses, and manage company settings all at once.

Email Verification for Team Access

To use team features, your email address must be verified if you haven't been added by one of your team managers. You'll find verification links on the Dashboard and the Hyvä Licenses pages.

Here's how verification works:

  1. Click the verification link (available on the Dashboard or Hyvä Licenses page)
  2. Hyvä sends you an automated email with a confirmation link
  3. Click the link in the email to validate your address
  4. After validation, you unlock all restricted team features
