Setting Up a Group Admin

Staff change and you may need to add or delete Group Administrator Logins. You can also set Restricted Group Admins 


Knowing how to set up your Team in the Group Admin is super important. You can also set up the individuals as Restricted Group Admins - this means they will only see the accounts relevant to them and can have specialised reports sent to them.
