About this file
This document is a user and profile maintenance guide for Long Beach Buys, the City of Long Beach's procurement portal powered by Periscope. The guide provides comprehensive instructions for Seller Administrators responsible for managing vendor accounts and access to the bidding platform. Key administrative functions covered include adding new users to accounts, maintaining existing user profiles, managing organizational addresses, and updating commodity codes and services that trigger bid notifications. The guide outlines the role-based access structure, which includes Seller roles (allowing access to bids, purchase orders, and electronic quote submission) and Seller Administrator roles (permitting overall account management). Users are created with temporary system-generated passwords that must be provided to new staff members by the administrator who establishes their login credentials.
The maintenance procedures detailed include deactivating user accounts, resetting passwords, modifying user roles and permissions, editing existing mailing addresses, and adding new addresses with various types such as general mailing addresses and bid mailing addresses. The commodity codes section allows vendors to add NIGP classification codes to their profiles to receive notifications for relevant procurement opportunities. All changes made within the system require clicking "Save & Exit" to implement modifications, with additional options to save and continue editing or cancel changes. The guide includes visual screenshots of the actual interface screens to guide administrators through each step of the account management process.
