MEMBERS - MANAGING ADMIN ACCESS WITH TIERED ADMINISTRATION
Tiered Administration ensures that each administrator has access to the proper levels and areas of the platform while also safeguarding access to your data.
ADDING ADMIN PRIVILEGES FOR A MEMBER
Any regular member account can be provided administrative privileges. You can either provide Full Access, or Selected Access.
- Start by creating a new member account or editing an existing one; then scrolling down to the Admin Privileges section
- Choose from either Full or Selected Access
- Full Access: Member has full administrative access to your entire PlayerLync platform. No areas are off limits.
-
Selected Access: Without providing full access to all areas, use this option to be selective on specific tabs.
