Here, you can create new accounts for clients or team members, assign an appropriate role (such as **Administrator**, **Account Manager**, or **Advertiser**), and define access rights to other accounts and to specific pages like **Dashboards**, **Management**, and **Discover**. This helps you organize complex agency setups and gives you a clear overview of all user permissions. ## Accessing the Function You can access central account management through the **User Menu** under the menu item **Manage Advertisers**. Important: This feature is only visible if you are logged in as an **Administrator** or have equivalent admin rights. ## Step-by-Step Guide ### Step 1: Open “Manage Advertisers” Go to **Manage Advertisers** via the user menu. Here you'll see an overview of all linked accounts, their roles, and permissions. ### Step 2: Create a New Account Click on **Create New Account** in the view. The form for creating a new account will replace the previous account list, allowing you to focus on entering details. If you see a note that your main account isn't yet connected to an Amazon account, you must first link your ad access in **Account Settings**. Without this connection, some fields or options will be missing when creating a new account. ### Step 3: Choose Account Type In the **Account Type** step, select which role the new account should have. The following options are available: - **Administrator:** Has full access to "Manage Advertisers" and can switch between all linked accounts. Ideal for agency admins. - **Account Manager:** Gets targeted access to a defined selection of other accounts. You assign these accounts via **Access to These Advertisers** in the next step. Suitable for team leads or account managers. - **Advertiser:** Standard user for a single sub-account, without rights to access other advertisers. Typical for client access. Note: Depending on your selection, additional fields or options will appear later, such as specific filters for advertisers or the choice of advertisers for account managers. ### Step 4: Enter Basic Information Now, enter the **Email Address** for the new account (the “@” symbol is required) and choose a **Password** with at least six characters. If any details like the role, email, or password are missing or invalid, the system will display a message and prevent saving until all information is correct. The email you enter does not have to be a real address and is only used for logging in to BidX. All relevant emails for sub-accounts will be sent to the administrator’s email address. ### Account Manager-Specific Information (for “Account Manager” only) If you selected **Account Manager**, the field **Access to These Advertisers** will appear. Here you can mark all advertisers that the new account manager should have access to. You can change this selection at any time later on. ### Advertiser-Specific Fields (for “Advertiser” only) If you are adding a new "Advertiser," you also need to specify the **Permission Type**. The default is **Full Access**. If you select **Custom**, you can specify in detail if and how the user can manage, view, or not use specific areas (**Dashboards**, **Management**, and **Discover**). ### Step 5: Save Double-check your entries carefully. Then click **Save** to create the new account. If the save is successful, the page will reload and the new account will appear in the table. Click **Cancel** to abort account creation and return to the previous view. If any required information is missing (e.g., role, a valid email address, password, or campaign identifier), saving will be prevented and an appropriate message will be shown. ## Settings & Options - **Custom Permissions:** With **Permission Type > Custom**, you can control exactly which sections the user can edit, view only, or not see at all. - **Account Manager Access:** Via **Access to These Advertisers**, you define exactly which accounts an account manager can access. ## Limitations & Special Notes - **Access Rights:** The **Manage Advertisers** page is only available to users with administrator rights. - **Roles:** An **Advertiser** always has access only to its own sub-account. ## Tips & Best Practices - Choose the role carefully: **Administrator** for agency managers, **Account Manager** for internal management, **Advertiser** for client sub-accounts. - Use "Custom" to, for example, give only read access to particularly sensitive areas like **Management**. - Regularly check which accounts account managers have access to, especially after team changes or adding new clients. - If your Amazon connection hasn't been set up, link it in **Account Settings** at the start so all features and fields are available to you.
