As a merchant, you have the ability to set user roles. Occasionally, you may designate a user as an admin incorrectly. The intent of this article is to explain how to correct this issue within your merchant account.
Disable admin account
Due to security purposes, you cannot switch an Admin to another type of role. Instead, follow these directions to disable the account and create the user again.
- Login to your merchant account.
- Tap on Users on the left sidebar
- Search and select the user in the system.
- Mark user as Enabled = N.
- Confirm disabling user within the popup to remove access.
If the User needs to use the same email address, you must edit the email address on the Edit User page of the disabled user and update the account. No duplicate email addresses are allowed in the system.
Add user to the system
- Login to your merchant account.
- Tap Users on the left sidebar within the dashboard.
- Tap Add User button.
- Select User from the Role Type field.
