Overview Distributors are organizations that manage multiple Groups of accounts. They may provide technical support, installation assistance, or hardware. Every Distributor must have at least one user with the role of Distributor Admin.

Creating a Distributor

Distributors can only be created by users who have a role of Admin. To create a Distributor:

• Click the "Manage Distributors" button on the Dashboard.
• Click the "Actions" tab.
• Click the "Add a new Distributor" button.
• Enter a name for the Distributor.

This is a required field.

• Enter the remaining information.

Note that the email address entered receives alert messages when system status for any account under the Distributor changes to "down" or "up".

It's recommended to use an email address for an email distribution list as the Distributor email, rather than an email address for a single person.

• Click the "Save Distributor" button.
