Account Management
This page is about the menu Account Management (Click on the 'User' icon on the top right and then on 'Account Management, in the old control panel SUB ACCOUNT in the top right)

1 Multiple user accounts

Each account can have sub accounts with a unique username and password. Sub accounts can be given restricted or full access to other accounts or individual properties. A sub account can also contain its own properties.

Only one person at a time can log in to any account or sub account.

A property is always owned by one account or sub account but it can be set up to be accessed from other accounts. It inherits its account level settings from this owner account. Therefore a property should be owned by the account which manages the property and whose Email address is used to send out confirmation messages and other system Emails.

  • If a property is managed mainly in the master account and the sub account just needs access to see certain information or to perform certain tasks it should be owned by the master account. In this case sub accounts are given access to the property.
  • If a property is managed mainly by the sub account and the master accounts just needs access it should be owned by the sub account. In this case the master account is given access to the property.

Click on the 'User' icon on the top right and then on 'Account Management (in the old control panel SUB ACCOUNT in the top right) to create new sub accounts or manage existing sub accounts
