Onboarding Wizard
After verifying your email, XBuddy guides you through a 6-step onboarding wizard. Required steps must be completed; optional steps can be skipped.
The wizard tracks your progress. You can close it and come back later — your completed steps are saved.
Steps
Company Profile (required)
Set up your company’s basic information:
- Company name and logo
- Timezone — used for scheduling, attendance, and reports
- Currency — default currency for invoices and finance
- Address — appears on invoices and documents
Go to: Settings → Company
Invite Your Team (optional)
Invite colleagues to your workspace. You can skip this and invite later.
- Go to Settings → Users
- Click Invite User
- Enter their email and assign a role:
- Admin — full access, can manage billing and users
- Manager — full access to assigned modules, can approve
- Member — standard access, can create and edit records
- Viewer — read-only access
Invited users receive an email with a link to set their password.
Select Modules (required)
Choose which modules your team needs. This is also where you select your plan.
Go to: Settings → Billing → Subscription
Available module categories:
- Business — CRM, Sales
- Finance — Invoicing, Accounting, Expenses
- Operations — Inventory, Manufacturing, Field Service, Quality
- People — HR, Payroll, Performance

You can add or remove modules at any time from your subscription settings.
Connect an Integration (optional)

- Google Drive — attach documents from Drive
- Stripe — process payments directly
- Email — sync your inbox for CRM activities

Create Your First Record (optional)
Create the first piece of data in your workspace. This marks your go-live milestone and unlocks a congratulations notification.
Suggested starting points:
- CRM → Create a Contact
- Finance → Create an Invoice
- HR → Add an Employee
Product Tour (optional)
Take a guided tour of the XBuddy interface. This step walks through the main navigation and key areas of the platform.
After onboarding
Once all required steps are complete, you’ll see a 100% completion message and be redirected to your main dashboard.
The onboarding progress bar also appears in Settings → Company so you can track progress for your team.
Resetting onboarding
To re-run onboarding (e.g. for a new team member who needs a walkthrough), go to Settings → Company → Onboarding and reset individual steps.
