SalesTrak Security

In order to access secure forms in SalesTrak, it is required that you login as a specific salesperson or as 'All Salespeople' . Not all forms require this, but the first time a form is loaded that does require security, the Sales Login Security window displays and a salesperson and password must be entered prior to the form opening. All subsequent forms requiring security will use the same login settings until changed or until you close Vans. The SalesTrak system uses two passwords for each salesperson, and two passwords for the 'All Salespeople' user. The restricted passwords, will give a user access to all prospect and scheduling information (depending on the salesperson that was selected) without permission to make any changes. You do not have to specify which password is being used. The system will recognize valid normal and restricted passwords.

Entering SalesTrak as a specific user allows you to view all prospect scheduling information for a specific salesperson. Using the Restricted password limits permissions to view-only, but the regular password allows full access.

All Salespeople Login

Entering SalesTrak as 'All Salespeople' allows you to view all prospect scheduling information for all salespeople. Using the Restricted password limits permissions to view-only, but using the high security code allows full access.

Change Password

Passwords and Restricted Passwords for individual salespeople may be changed directly from the SalesTrak Security login form as long as the existing passwords are known. These can also be changed through the Salesperson Maintenance form.
