Administrative Panel for Citizen Connect

Citizen Connect modules are configured from the administrative panel that can be accessed at admin.finance.socrata.com

This is the administrative panel for all Data & Insights Finance Insights applications, for example, Open Checkbook, Open BudgetOpen Payroll 

Users have to be given a role or permissions on the citizen connect module in order to manage, and update settings as needed. There are two access levels available to users:

1. A manager will have access to configurations to all modules under their organization, including the ability to view logs (Audit tab ) for the modules.

2. Users can also be given permission to only configure specific modules without access to the logs.  

How to Access the Administrative Panel

Users can either log into the administrative panel directly by going to admin.finance.socrata.com or by clicking on Administration when logged in on their Citizen connect instance as shown below:
