About this file

This document is a user and profile maintenance guide for the City of Long Beach's procurement platform, Long Beach Buys, powered by Periscope. The guide provides detailed instructions for Seller Administrators responsible for managing vendor accounts, user access, and organizational information within the system. The document outlines procedures for adding new users with assigned roles (Seller or Seller Administrator), maintaining existing user accounts through status changes and password resets, editing and adding organizational addresses, and managing commodity codes and services that determine bid notifications. No specific products, services, quantities, response dates, due dates, site visits, bidder conferences, award dates, or contract terms are addressed in this operational guide.

The guide does not contain pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent information, funding requirements, or financial details. Instead, it serves as an instructional manual for system navigation and account administration. Key administrative functions include user role assignment and modification, password management, address type selection (such as general mailing addresses or bid mailing addresses), and commodity code searches by keyword or category selection. The document emphasizes the automatic generation of system emails containing temporary passwords for newly created users and requires Seller Administrators to communicate login credentials separately. All procedures require saving changes and exiting the system to finalize updates.
