2
Firm Setup

You'll be prompted to create or join a firm (your company in RIVET)

3

Next Step

After creating your account, you'll need to set up your firm before you can start working with projects.

Joining an Existing Firm

If someone from your company has already set up RIVET, you may receive an invitation to join their firm. Here's how it works:

1
You'll receive an email invitation from RIVET
2
Click the "Accept Invitation" link in the email
3
If you don't have an account, you'll be prompted to create one
4
If you already have an account, sign in

Invitation Expiration

Invitation links expire after 7 days. If your link has expired, ask your firm administrator to send a new invitation.

Multiple Accounts and Firms

Each RIVET account can belong to one firm. If you work with multiple companies that use RIVET, you have two options:

Separate Accounts

Create separate RIVET accounts using different email addresses for each company

Ask to be Added

Have the firm administrator add your existing account to their firm (you'll leave your current firm)

Note

In the future, RIVET will support belonging to multiple firms with a single account. For now, each account is tied to one firm.
