# Getting started with Pro

# Introduction to Easy PV Pro

This page summarises the features you gain access to with Easy PV Pro. Intended for solar professionals, our Pro tier unlocks team collaboration and access to features that can save you time and impress your customers with a professional journey through their quote and installation.

---

## Team collaboration

**Team management settings** let you configure components, pricing, defaults and permissions for all your users. Everyone works from the same setup, which keeps designs, quotes and documents consistent and reduces rework.

Collaborate on designs with **project and component sharing** and stay organised with project status tracking so everyone is on the same page.

## Integrated survey functionality 

Complete a standardised survey directly within the project with the Survey task. Ensures required information and photos are captured consistently and passed cleanly to the design and installation teams.

Create a consistent, auditable photographic record of what was installed in the Installation task. Include how the system was configured and site‑specific notes needed for future maintenance or customer support.

### Send emails without leaving Easy PV

These documents can be attached to **emails sent through Easy PV** using integrated emailing functionality.

With Easy PV pro you're able to collaborate with your team by sharing projects and components. See below how you can configure your sharing settings.

---

### Default sharing

Each user in a Pro team can configure default sharing settings for the projects and components they create. Navigate to **My account** &gt; **Preferences** &gt; **General** and then **Default sharing.**

In this section, simply select which sharing permissions you would like to be granted automatically when creating a project or component.

[![image.png](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/scaled-1680-/3fTsMdD3iBP0rxf5-image.png)](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/3fTsMdD3iBP0rxf5-image.png)

<p class="callout info">This will only apply to new projects. If you would like to share old projects, see below for instructions on manual sharing. </p>

### Manual sharing

If you would not like projects or components to share by default, you also have the option to share individual projects or components manually. You will also have the option to transfer ownership to another user when sharing manually.

<p class="callout warning">You can only configure sharing permissions on projects and components owned by you.</p>

#### Sharing a project or component

##### Project sharing

You can share a project via your list of projects on the My Projects page, or via the project overview page on a specific project.

- From your project list on the **My Projects** page - click on the share icon on the project you want to share[![image.png](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/scaled-1680-/IJgoXa77ZaJaJXqQ-image.png)](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/IJgoXa77ZaJaJXqQ-image.png)

##### Component sharing

If you are using [custom components](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/books/creating-components/chapter/create-and-manage-your-own-components "Create and manage your own components") in Easy PV, you can share those owned by you with other members of your team. Hover over the Components option in the main site navigation and then select the component type to find the component you want to share. Click on the share icon to configure sharing for the component.

<p class="callout warning">For custom inverters and solar panels, you need to share both the manufacturer group and the individual component.</p>

#### Selecting which permissions to give

Once you have chosen the project or component you want to share, you can then **select the team** you want to share with and **set the permissions** you want to apply. Click **save** in the bottom right corner. If you have lots of members in your team, you may need to scroll down to see the save option.

If you want to **change ownership** of the project or component, click on the **make owner** button beside the name of an individual user in your team. This will assign ownership to that user and you will no longer have permissions to configure sharing.

Once you have shared a project with a user, you can use the **copy project link** button to get the URL of the project to share directly.

- **View:** users will be able to view projects or use the component, but not edit it.
- **Edit:** users will be able to make changes to the project or component.
- **Delete:** users will be able to permanently delete the project or component.

With Easy PV pro, different members of the team can have different levels of access. The roles available are:

- **Admin**: role includes the ability to view and manage Pro team settings.
- **Owner**: this is the user who set up the pro team and this role cannot be selected or changed. They have same permissions as admin but cannot be removed from the team, so make sure this is under an email address you can access even if the owner was to leave the company.
- **Standard**: can access all pro features within projects, but cannot view or edit the pro account settings.

#### **Adding or removing users**

To **add users**, you’ll need the individual’s name and email address (they do not need an existing Easy PV account). You can then choose the user’s role. This role can be changed at anytime.

[![image.png](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/scaled-1680-/7zEOhz2bvy1LQhKP-image.png)](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/7zEOhz2bvy1LQhKP-image.png)

<p class="callout info">The cost for adding a new user will be proportional to how much time is left until your next charge date and subsequent direct debits will be automatically updated. </p>

To **remove a user**, click on the icon beside their details. This will disable their account and remove them from the subscription. The owner account cannot be removed so ensure it is under a company email address.

### Editing users

User names or email addresses cannot be edited here. This can only be done while logged into the relevant account. If you've made a typo when adding a new user to your team, get in touch with the [support team](mailto:help@easy-pv.co.uk).

 If Gmail or Microsoft 365 is your email provider, then simply select **OAuth 2.0**, select the relevant option and click connect, this will direct you to your email where you can approve the connection.

Once it is linked, you can send a test email to make sure it's working as intended.

#### **SMTP** 

If you have a different email provider then you will need to set up using the **SMTP** option.

What is then required for each field depends on the provider and you will likely be able to find instructions online by searching for **your provider** and **SMTP credentials**. Below is some general guidance for each field

<table border="1" id="bkmrk-smtp-username-these-" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; height: 240px;"><colgroup><col style="width: 17.2025%;"></col><col style="width: 82.9167%;"></col></colgroup><tbody><tr style="height: 49px;"><td style="height: 49px;">SMTP Username</td><td style="height: 49px;">These credentials are provided by your email service provider and are used to authenticate your email client. In most cases this is your full email adress (e.g. user@provider.com) </td></tr><tr style="height: 49px;"><td style="height: 49px;">SMTP From Address</td><td style="height: 49px;">**Optional**: This is the email address that recipients see as the sender of the email. In most cases this will be the same as the SMTP username</td></tr><tr style="height: 31px;"><td style="height: 31px;">SMTP Name</td><td style="height: 31px;">**Optional**: this will appear next to the 'from address' </td></tr><tr style="height: 31px;"><td style="height: 31px;">SMTP Host</td><td style="height: 31px;">This will vary depending on provider. The format will be something like smtp.provider.com</td></tr><tr style="height: 49px;"><td style="height: 49px;">SMTP Password</td><td style="height: 49px;">This will usually be an **App Password** that you need to set up but in some cases it will be your email password</td></tr><tr style="height: 31px;"><td style="height: 31px;">SMTP Port</td><td style="height: 31px;">**Optional**: by default this will be 587 but in some cases this will need to be changed</td></tr></tbody></table>

Once all required fields are filled in, click save credentials, you can then send a test email to make sure it's working as intended.

- Add an 'About us' section to the contents page.
- Configure a branded footer to appear on all pages of the proposal document with your logo and company information.

If you want further customisation of the proposal or want us to create a document entirely to your own specification, please contact us about our **Enterprise package** on <help@easy-pv.co.uk> or <help@easy-pv.ie>.

### **Setting up**

You can precisely match this with your branding colours by typing in directly the RGB, HSL or HEX code, use the arrows to navigate between these options.

#### Cover page 

Select whether you would like to include a custom cover page and whether you would like the customer name and address overlaid on your cover page and what colour you'd like this text to be.

<p class="callout info">If you don't already have a preferred way of making a cover page, you might find [Canva](https://www.canva.com/) useful. We have created a [template](https://www.canva.com/design/DAGR2EHVTWs/Uni6BIDf_8DWncEe3QOehw/view?utm_content=DAGR2EHVTWs&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=publishsharelink&mode=preview) with some additional instructions that you can use to create your own cover page design in Canva. When you are finished, click Share, then download, change the file type to PNG or JPG and download.</p>

Once you have your custom cover page, either add it in the **Uploads** tab or in the cover page section click **Select from uploaded image** &gt; **Add images**. After uploading you will be able to select your cover page. You also have the option to use an image from a URL.

#### Footer

In your custom footer you can input a phone number, address and website. You can also select the footer background and text colour and upload a logo.

[![image.png](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/scaled-1680-/goirAJCBxZC5CtJu-image.png)](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/goirAJCBxZC5CtJu-image.png)

Make sure the footer text does not overflow onto a second line when you generate the proposal or this will cause formatting errors.

#### Contents page

In this section you can add a custom cover letter with a custom header and contents. This can be overridden on a per-project basis.

You can also include an 'About us' section with an optional custom image. The 'About us' section should be a short description, make sure it does not overflow onto the next page of the proposal.

#### Terms and conditions and scope of work 

Here you can input your terms and conditions and scope of work. In each case you can use the options at the bottom of the text box to format the text:

[![image.png](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/scaled-1680-/EmRj4aVeginFVOHH-image.png)](https://help.easy-pv.co.uk/uploads/images/gallery/2025-06/EmRj4aVeginFVOHH-image.png)

Both these options can be overridden on a project by project basis.

<p class="callout warning">Changes made to the contents page, terms and conditions and scope of work will **not** automatically refresh in projects where you've already opened the customer proposal task. Click the refresh icon next to where it says 'Customer proposal' to reset those fields to what you've got in your settings. </p>
