Account Settings > Administration > Sub-Accounts
> Note: Only Administrators have access to this area.
[Optional] You can create Sub-Accounts within (under) your Account, or within any other Sub-Accounts within your Account. This is useful if you manage Event(s) for other client organizations or divisions of your company, and you would like to keep their Event(s) and Registration data separate from that of other Accounts.
How to use Sub-Accounts
- Each Account or Sub-Account contains its own database.
- Even if they have the same name/codes, items like Custom Event Data, Custom Profile Data, Content Blocks, Display Fields, and Profiles are unique to the Account, and are held separate from those same items in other Accounts.
- Roles, Tags, and some other areas can be set to use the settings/fields from the Parent Account.
- A Sub-Account has its own separate database of Events, but all information in a Sub-Account is visible to any Users with access to the Parent Account.
- Sub-Accounts can be useful within large organizations in keeping Event data organized by department or division, or within a smaller business by keeping Events and data separated by client.
- Events are always associated with an Account or a Sub-Account.
- Since each Account and Sub-Account has its own Profiles and Events databases, Accounts should be arranged logically.
- The System Administrator should consider how best to structure the Accounts.
- User Accounts can be set up at the Sub-Account level.
- Users with access at the Parent Account level will see a drop-down menu in the upper left of the screen with the list of Sub-Accounts to choose from:
