FAQs and Common Problems
Please consult the following information regarding common administrator questions before contacting support. If your questions are still not answered, email support@magentrix.com with all information relevant to your inquiry.
User Login and Access Issues
Why can't users log in to the portal? It was working before.
- Ensure users are attempting to log in at your portal URL (in the format yourcompany.magentrixcloud.com) rather than the Magentrix homepage (magentrix.com)
- Check that the user's account is still active and hasn't been deactivated
- Verify the user has the correct security role permissions for portal access
- If you have forgotten your portal URL or users have forgotten login credentials, contact support
Users are getting "access denied" errors when trying to view certain areas. What's wrong?
- Check that users have the correct security role permissions for the specific tabs, modules, or data they're trying to access
- Verify that users are associated with the correct Account and Contact records for proper data filtering
- For Partner and Customer users, ensure their Account and Contact records exist in your connected CRM system
Navigation and Interface Issues
I can't see or find the Tab mentioned in the documentation. Where is it?
- Tabs must be created and then added to Apps before they can be accessed by administrators or users
- Users also require the correct security role permissions to access the Entities referenced by Tabs
- See About Tabs, About Apps, and About Magentrix Security Roles for more information
- If the Tab accesses a module, you may also require specific settings for that module (See About Magentrix Modules)
CRM Integration and Data Synchronization
My imported CRM records are missing or outdated. How do I resynchronize?
- For Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics: Access imported objects on the Setup Home page by clicking Extend > Salesforce/Dynamics CRM
- For HubSpot: Contact support to investigate data synchronization issues
- Native Magentrix Entities are accessed by clicking Create > Entities
- If changes in your CRM aren't reflected in Magentrix, force synchronization by refreshing the connection (See Managing Imported CRM Objects documentation)
Data Recovery and Deletion
I accidentally deleted something in my portal. How do I restore it?
- Records: When individual records are deleted, they're moved to the Recycle Bin before permanent removal and can be restored
- Native Magentrix Fields and Objects: When you delete fields or objects that are native to Magentrix, the data is permanently deleted and cannot be recovered
- Imported CRM Objects: Deletion behavior depends on your CRM integration settings
- You can recover deleted records from the Recycle Bin (See Recycle Bin documentation)
- For major errors or permanently deleted data, Magentrix can roll back your entire portal - contact support to request a complete rollback
I cannot reuse the Unique Name of a deleted object. How do I release it?
- Deleted objects retain their Unique Name ID while in the Recycle Bin
- Clear deleted objects from the Recycle Bin before reusing Unique Name IDs for new objects
- See Recycle Bin documentation for detailed instructions
Licensing and User Management
I'm getting errors when trying to create new users. What's happening?
- Check your current license usage in Company Preferences to see if you've reached your license limits
- Verify you're assigning the correct license type (Employee, Partner User, Partner Account-based, or Customer User)
- For Partner and Customer users, ensure they have associated Account and Contact records in your CRM
- Contact your account manager or support to add additional licenses if you've reached your limits
How do I know which license type to assign to a user?
- Employee License: Internal staff who need full organizational data access
- Partner User License: External partners licensed per individual user
- Partner Account-based License: External partners licensed per organization (unlimited users per account)
- Customer User License: Customers accessing support or community features
- See the Licensing Guide for detailed explanations of each type
Sandbox and Development
Can I test changes before deploying them to production?
- Yes, if you have a Sandbox environment, always test structural changes there first
- Contact support to request deployment of tested changes from Sandbox to Production
- Note: Custom Hubs are not supported in Sandbox environments
- Some elements (themes, content, users) must be manually recreated in Production
What types of changes can be deployed from Sandbox to Production?
- Can be deployed: Custom objects, fields, workflows, automation rules, custom code
- Must be manually recreated: Themes, content, courses, users, security roles, Custom Hub configurations
Module and Feature Access
Users can't access certain modules or features. How do I enable them?
- Verify the module is activated for your portal type (Partner Portal vs Customer Portal have different available modules)
- Check that users have appropriate security role permissions for the specific module
- Some modules require additional configuration - see the specific module documentation
- Contact support if you need modules activated that aren't currently available
How do I know which modules are available for my portal type?
- Partner Portals and Customer Portals have different module sets
- Some modules are restricted based on your solution type
- Contact your account manager for information about available modules for your specific license
