Use Case: Customize User Access Roles
You can edit the user access capabilities to reflect changes in users' responsibilities and ensure the security of your Portal account. Any Portal user with another user boarded under their account can edit access for that user at any time. This tutorial describes how to edit the access role for an existing user.
Objective
Update user roles for access to specific resources in the Portal.
Audience
Facilitators
Referrers
Merchants
Environment
Portal (Sandbox)
Portal (Production)
Prerequisites
Prerequisites
You must have a fully boarded Payrix account to perform any of the actions described in the use case guides.
Make sure you have the full name of the user as it is written in the Portal.
Warnings
Warning: User role access levels can only be assigned to new users based on your account level.
For example, a Merchant cannot give “Referrer Full Access” to another user, but a Referrer can grant this level of access to a Merchant.
