Add an account and grant permissions

Background information

Only the following two types of administrator accounts can add accounts and grant permissions:

• If you are a Super Administrator, you can manage all groups and their member accounts.

• If you are not a Super Administrator but have been assigned the default roles ((Organization and Account Administrator and Account Operation Administrator)), you can manage only the member accounts within the current group and its subgroups.

Step 1: Add an account

You can create a new member account in a group. Follow these steps:

1. Log in to the Account Center console, and under My Entity, select Account Group.

2. You can select a group in the organizational directory, click Add, and then select Create Account.

   

   You can also select Add Account on the Add Account Group page.

   

3. On the Add Account page, select the Owning Enterprise to apply its certification information to the new account. You can also change the organizational directory for the new account. After you fill in the other required information, click Confirm Add to create the account.

   Note

   The Display name is only for identifying an account and cannot be used to log in.

   Once an account is created, it is automatically managed by the enterprise administrator and requires no invitation.

4. After the account is added, you can view its information in the corresponding group.

   

Step 2: Grant permissions

You can grant Organization and Administrator permissions to a new member account, allowing the account to manage other accounts within its management scope.

1. Click Details in the Actions column of the newly added corporate member account.

   

2. In Advanced Configurations, in the Account Role section, click Modify.

3. In the Role list column, select the Organization and Administrator role and click OK.

4. After an account is granted the Organization and Administrator permissions, it has administrative permissions over the accounts within its management scope.
