Getting Started with susurate.com: Quick Onboarding & Troubleshooting Guide
Joining susurate.com should be seamless. However, if you’ve been added to initiatives or have funders requiring specific data, there are a few quick checks to ensure you get started smoothly.
1. Confirm Your Email Address
-
Double-check your email address when signing up — make sure it’s correct and avoid switching between different addresses.
-
You can add additional users or team members later, but your main login should always use your own email.
-
A code will be sent to your email each time you log in. Allow up to 1 minute for it to arrive.
2. Add Your First Initiative
-
Start by adding your own initiative.
-
In the prompt, be as detailed as possible — mention any frameworks, standards, or regulations you report on. This helps generate better indicators.
-
Important: Edit your indicators before moving to the next step — titles, descriptions, and units. Once you click Next, they cannot be changed due to our data integrity policy and alignment with global reporting standards.
3. Complete Your First Report
-
After confirming your indicators, click Next to create your first report.
-
We recommend completing it right away.
-
If you ever need new indicators, create a new initiative and start reporting there.
-
Want to remove an initiative? Contact us and we’ll archive it for you.
4. Reporting on Other Initiatives
-
If you’re added to another initiative, you’ll receive a monthly email for each one.
-
The email contains direct links for quick data capture.
-
Check the initiative title before entering data. Make sure you’re reporting for the correct period.
5. Adjusting Reporting Periods
-
Your own initiatives start 3 months back by default.
-
-
Go to Initiatives
-
Select your initiative
-
Click the top-right red box to adjust the start date and reporting frequency.
To change this:
-
-
For initiatives you didn’t create, you can’t set the date. You may need to fill in all outstanding periods.
-
If you have no data for a period, click Nothing to Report and explain why.
6. Adding Team Members
-
Under the Stakeholders tab, add team members to help with reporting.
-
They will receive the same reminder emails as you.
