Organization and Sub-Organization Administrator Functions

Managing your organization or sub-organization’s default settings

Organization or sub-organization administration is available for select, trained users to help provide a more focused and customized experience for users associated with those groups. These administrators can manage their organization or sub-organization’s default contact information, user preferences, Smart Alert, and Asset Protection settings. These settings serve as the default for users associated with that group**.** However, individual users can further customize their individual preferences and settings at any time.

These defaults will be applied to new users as well existing users who reset their preferences.

Update the default organization or sub-organization contact information

To change your sub-organization’s contact information, open your User panel and select the Account tab (your name should be visible at the top of the panel, followed by your account information). Next, select your organization or sub-organization option.
