User Management

[david_robins]

I'm trying to work out the user account structure and am getting a little frustrated with the lack of documentation.

 

I want to host my own adserver where my clients can all log in to the same instance of Revive and access only their own websites / inventory and advertisers. I'm sure this is possible (and probably quite simple) but after 30 mins of jumping around in Revive and hours of scouring Google I can't work it out.

 

Can someone give me a quick rundown on how the various user / accounts work or point me to some more detailed documentation.

 

Many thanks,

 

David.

Me too, David, so far I have this overview, which might help a bit:

                     Accounts          <=>         Users 
                        |
                Clients / Affiliates
                        |
                     Agencies

HTH.

Hi David & Richard,

 

Sorry the documentation is not yet in place around this area - I'm working hard to improve the documentation little by little, and will put this on my list to look at ASAP.

 

Cheers,

 

Andrew

Hi, 

I am doing the same thing. What you need is to

 

- login as administrator

- go to inventory.> Account management

Under actions you will be able to create new accounts. Each account will be for a client/company.

After that you need to click onthe name off the account and go to the Account Properties page 

Click on User access

add any number of users you need

Actions>AddUser 

Adding the permissions you want them to have.

 

 

Let me know if you have any problems. 

 

Cheers
