05 – Profiles and subcustomer

When a new user is created you must choose carefully the item “Allow access to”, because you can decide to allow access to a subcustomer or the main client and according to your needs the right choice may vary.

Subcustomers are more commercial, that is if I am a reseller and do not want my customers to see each other it is necessary to create subcustomers, while profiles are used when a user wants to be given access to a specific plant group.

The main differences between a customer and plant groups are as follows:

Customers:

  • Users can only be invited to customers, not to the plant groups.
  • Customer-related users can be used as recipients of reports and alarms.
  • Users can be associated with the customer profile.

Plant groups:

  • They are simple containers of plants.
  • Can be used in the creation of custom profiles.

The tool for managing plant groups allows you to create and modify plant groups and sub-customers.

To access the Plant groups management page, once in the “Tools” section you will need to click on the button “Plant groups management”:

Once the button is clicked, the Plant groups management will appear and you can create, delete and edit plant groups and customers.
