Assigning a Tracker Coordinator

The Tracker Coordinator is the person identified at your company who is generally responsible for all aspects of the Tracker system. The following are the Tracker Coordinator's main responsibilities:
  • The Tracker Coordinator provides first-level support and answers general questions about the Tracker system for both company and law firm users. For this reason, the Tracker Coordinator's name will be displayed at the bottom of every page in Tracker as a support contact.
  • Additionally, the Tracker Coordinator's name and email address is displayed on every new user email that is sent to new company or law firm users: "If you have any questions about the implementation or about Tracker, please contact [name of Company Tracker Coordinator] at [email address]."
  • The Tracker Coordinator is also the main contact at your company for Tracker unless otherwise established.

Backup Coordinators
The Backup Coordinators are identified only in the Company and Office/Region profile pages, and are not shown at the bottom of each page in Tracker. Generally, this information is helpful to Thomson Reuters if they cannot contact the Tracker Coordinator.  Both the coordinators and the backups can change who fills these two roles within their assigned sphere of responsibility.

Tracker Coordinator vs Company System Administrator

The Tracker Coordinator is also usually assigned the system role of company system administrator. The role of company system administrator can be assigned to more than one user. There is only one Tracker Coordinator and one Backup Tracker Coordinator.
A Tracker Coordinator can perform the following tasks, but a company system administrator cannot.
  • Edit matter type templates
  • Delete matters
  • Give a company user access to Analytics
  • Give a user (provided the user has a system role of Company System Administrator, Company Office Administrator, or Company Matter Creator) permission to use the Matter Upload tool
  • Change the Tracker Coordinator and Backup Tracker Coordinator
  • Edit timekeeper rate effective dates from the Timekeeper Rates Report.
