Before your team can start using wearables, someone needs to lay the organizational groundwork in the Console — creating your company’s workspace, defining where your people work, and making sure the right supervisors and safety managers have the right level of access. This guide walks you through every step of that initial setup, from the moment you activate your account through to having your first site configured and your first teammate invited. The whole process typically takes under 20 minutes, and you only need to do it once.
BreakPoint will send a verification email to the address you used during signup. You must confirm your email before you can invite team members or pair devices. Check your spam folder if the message doesn’t arrive within a few minutes.

Initial Setup Flow

​
Role Permissions

BreakPoint has three built-in roles. Every invited user is assigned exactly one role, and you can change a user’s role at any time from Team → Manage Members.
Admins have full, unrestricted access to the entire organization. They can create and delete locations, manage billing, configure PulseGuard and TimeKeeper settings, invite and remove users, assign roles, pair and decommission devices, and export any report.Assign the Admin role to your BreakPoint account owner and any IT or operations managers who are responsible for platform configuration. Limit the number of Admins to those who genuinely need destructive-action capabilities.
Supervisors have full operational access within their assigned locations. They can view the live workforce map, acknowledge and resolve alerts, view and export attendance records, manage worker profiles, and pair devices at their site. They cannot modify billing, organization-level settings, or other locations.Assign the Supervisor role to shift supervisors, safety managers, and team leads who need real-time visibility and the ability to act on alerts.
Viewers have read-only access to the Console for their assigned locations. They can view the live map, browse alerts (but not acknowledge them), and see attendance data, but they cannot make any changes to settings, workers, or devices.Assign the Viewer role to HR staff who need access to attendance records, auditors, or executives who want visibility without the ability to change configuration.
