In this chapter, you'll learn the onboarding flow for ABB Ability BuildingPro and BuildingPro Suites.
The process starts in ABB Ability BuildingPro, where users sign up or log in with SSO, create portfolios, and invite additional users. Each portfolio is synchronized to BuildingPro Suites as a tenant.
This means:
portfolios in ABB Ability BuildingPro become tenants in BuildingPro Suites
invited users are synchronized to BuildingPro Suites automatically
roles can then be created and adjusted inside BuildingPro Suites
To manage collaboration in BuildingPro Suites, roles determine what permissions users have within a tenant.
Select the portfolio assigned to you, or create a new one.
Open BuildingPro Suites from that portfolio.
Check the license and access status.
Invite the first users.
Create or adjust roles if needed.
Log in and open BuildingPro Suites: Use the selected portfolio as the entry point into the correct tenant context.
Create a tenant: Create a portfolio in ABB Ability BuildingPro. This automatically creates the corresponding tenant in BuildingPro Suites.
Check license and access status: Confirm that the selected portfolio can be used in BuildingPro Suites and review expiry warnings if shown.
Invite users to a tenant: Invite users from the Portfolio Editor so their accounts are created and synchronized automatically.
Create a role: Create additional roles inside BuildingPro Suites after entering it from the sidebar.
Assign a role to a user: Adjust the role of a synchronized user inside BuildingPro Suites.
Each of these steps is essential for a successful start. Follow them in this order to prepare the portfolio, confirm access to BuildingPro Suites, and onboard your first users.
