Overview
Workspaces enables rural professionals to better serve their Farm Focus customers by seamlessly and easily managing their Farm Focus accounts in a secure, auditable, and trusted way.
Workspaces give rural professionals such as accountancy, bank and farm consultancy businesses direct control over who can access Farm Focus farms within their organisation and to what level. The rural professional creates a workspace. The subscription admin (usually the farm owner) permits their farm to be part of a workspace. (The subscription admin is the person who pays for the Farm Focus subscription and is usually the farm owner.) Access to farms in that workspace is then controlled by the rural professional organisation or more precisely the workspace administrator in the rural professional organisation.
Workspaces save time, improve security and ensure the correct team members have access to the correct farms at the correct time. Workspace members use their logins allowing accurate audit logging and traceability, which is not possible when a generic organisational login is used.
The subscription admin can remove their farm from a workspace at any time and this will revoke all workspace members access. They can also view who has access to their farm from the workspace.

Workspace roles
There are two types of workspace roles:
Administrator (Admin) role:
The person who created the workspace will automatically become an Admin. Every workspace must have at least one administrator. The role provides the user with full access to all functions of the workspace. This role controls which team members get access to what farms and at what level. If you have questions about the different farm access levels; Find out more.
A workspace administrator can:
Invite new workspace members
Remove workspace members
Request a farm be part of their workspace
Accept or decline a subscription admin (farm owner's) request for their farm to join a workspace
Remove a farm from a workspace
Add or remove access of a workspace member to a farm
Change the access level (organisation, restricted or reporting) of a workspace member to a farm
Change the workspace role of members from standard to admin.
Standard role:
A workspace can have as many standard members as it needs. Standard members can view all the farms that belong to the workspace but are only permitted to work on farms that they have been granted access to by the workspace administrator.
A standard member of a workspace can:
open and work in farms to which you have access
view all notifications relating to your farms
view your level of access to each farm
view all farms that are part of the workspace
view all pending farms
search for farms
view all members
view all pending members
search for members
All workspace members must have a Farm Focus login. Find out how to create your own login.
