As the administrator of a business account, you can invite other users in your organization to join it. Once a user joins the account, you can grant them rights to manage all or specific license keys.
To invite a user to join the business account:
On the Dashboard, click Business Profile in the upper right and then click Users (also in the upper right).
The Business Account Users list is displayed:
Click Invite Users.
In the dialog that opens, select a language of invitation, then type the email address of a user and click Add. You can invite more than one user at the same time. Once the list of users is complete, click the Send Invitations button.
When a user receives the email, it will contain instructions and a link to join the business account. Clicking on the link will open the following Parallels My Account dialog in a web browser:
If the user already has a personal account, he/she will need to enter their current password. If the user doesn't have an account, they must choose and type a password to create a personal account. The user then clicks Join account to join and log in to Parallels My Account.
There are two types of business account membership:
Regular Member. When a user accepts the invitation, they are initially granted privileges of a regular member. A regular member cannot manage any of the subscriptions or licenses and must be either promoted to the account administrator (see below for details) or granted rights to manage a particular license key (see Creating additional license keys).
Account Administrator. An account administrator has full privileges to manage all of the available subscriptions and licenses.
To promote a user to the administrator of a business account, you need to do the following:
Open the Business Account Users list (see above) and click the user name you want to promote.
The dialog displaying the user membership information opens.
Click the Role drop-down menu and select Account Administrator.
Use the Notes box to enter a note if desired and click Save to save the information.
The user needs to log off and then log on again for the new role to take effect.
