Getting started

Getting access

Access is granted, not self-served. ADRS Marine approves a company before anyone from it can register, which is why signing up starts with an email address rather than a form.

The sign-in screen. Note the two tabs — they lead to different accounts, not different pages.

Two kinds of account

The sign-in screen has two tabs, and choosing the wrong one is the most common reason a correct password appears to fail.

TabWho uses it
Company LoginThe master account created during company onboarding. Signs in with the company master ID.
User LoginEveryone else — colleagues who joined by naming the company. Signs in with their own email address.

Forgotten password

Forgot password? on the sign-in screen runs a three-step reset:

  1. Enter your emailThe address on the account — the same one you sign in with.
  2. Enter the codeA verification code is emailed to it. Codes are short-lived, so request a fresh one rather than reusing an older email.
  3. Set a new passwordYou are signed in afterwards.

If nothing arrives, check the address and your spam folder. If it still does not come, contact support@adrsmarine.com — an administrator cannot set your password for you.

Why there is no open sign-up

ADRS Marine keeps a register of the companies it holds an agreement with. Onboarding is checked against it. This means a competitor cannot create an account to look around, and it means the company name on your reports is the one on the agreement rather than whatever someone typed.

Registering a company

The person doing this is the master user — the first account, and the one that configures everything else.

  1. Go to the onboarding screenFrom the sign-in page, choose Click to Onboard, then the company tab.
  2. Enter the company master emailThis is the address ADRS Marine holds on the agreement. Nothing else is asked for yet.
  3. The registry is checkedIf the address is recognised, the company name fills in automatically and the rest of the form appears.
  4. Complete the profileRegistration number, location, registered address, an optional logo, and the master user ID and password.
An approved master email. The company name comes from the registry and cannot be edited — it is the name on the agreement.

Why the fields lock

The company name and email are filled from the registry and are read-only. They identify the company on every report you will ever export, so they are not the applicant's to change.

If the email is not recognised

You will be told the address is not approved yet, and given a way to reach ADRS Marine directly.

An address that is not on the register. Nothing further is asked, and there are two ways to get in touch.
An address that is not on the register. Nothing further is asked, and there are two ways to get in touch.

This normally means one of three things: the agreement is not yet in place, a different address was registered, or there is a typo. Booking a call resolves it fastest.

Joining an existing company

Colleagues do not need the master email. They register by naming the company.

  1. Choose the user tab on the onboarding screen
  2. Type the company nameCapitalisation does not matter; the registered spelling is what gets stored.
  3. Fill in name, email and passwordThese appear once the company is confirmed.
  4. Wait for approvalThe account is created as Pending. A company admin approves it and sets the role.
