About This Feature
Overview
Add Invite Members is a member management feature in the WPS admin console on Windows. It is used to add new people to an organization structure and configure how they join the company.
Core tasks include:
- Add Members: Enter member details manually and save them to the company directory.
- Invite Members to Join: Generate an invite link or QR code and send it to people who need to join.
- Invite Settings: Configure what information applicants must provide and whether members or external visitors can request to join.
This feature fits company directory maintenance, new employee onboarding, cross-team collaboration setup, and link-based member invitations.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Supports manual member creation in the admin console, invite links or QR codes, and join settings for company entry. | Microsoft Word focuses on document sharing and co-authoring. Users can share a document by email and set edit permissions, but it does not provide a company org-structure member entry flow. | Google Drive lets users share files by email and assign Viewer, Commenter, or Editor access. Its focus is file sharing rather than company member enrollment. | Notion lets admins add workspace members by email or invite link and manage roles or invite-link access in the workspace. | Adobe Acrobat supports sharing documents for viewing or review by link or email, with collaboration centered on PDF review rather than company directory management. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS combines member creation, invite entry, department assignment, and invite settings in one admin workflow for company structure management. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft centers on document-level sharing and typically relies on cloud-stored files instead of an org member management console. | Compared with WPS: Google centers on file access permissions, and company-join management is not handled in the same admin entry point. | Compared with WPS: Notion supports workspace invitations, but its member model is built around workspace and page permissions rather than a company directory. | Compared with WPS: Adobe mainly handles PDF sharing and review, so member onboarding and department management are outside its main workflow. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS is a practical fit for teams that need a single place to maintain company structure and invite members to join. Other products can support sharing or inviting in their own collaboration scenarios, but their main object of management is not the same as company member administration.
Use Cases
| # | Scenario | Target Users | Core Pain Point | Solution |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | New employee onboarding records | Company admins, HR teams | New member details need to be entered before collaboration starts | Use Add Members to fill in name, department, and contact details |
| 2 | Link-based member invitations | Team admins | Inviting people one by one is inefficient | Use Invite Members to Join to generate a link or QR code for distribution |
| 3 | Join form control | Company admins | Incomplete application details make review harder | Use Invite Settings to require real name, email, and optional remarks |
| 4 | Restrict external join requests | Company admins | External visitors may see join entry points that are not needed | Turn off external join request options in Invite Settings |
| 5 | Member-led colleague invitations | Department leads | Teams may need a more flexible way to expand collaboration | Decide in Invite Settings whether members can invite colleagues to join |
