Assigning a Finance User Role

You can provide Portal access to those who make financial decisions for the registered company by creating specific user roles: Finance or Financial Contact. These roles determine the user’s permissions to manage the account.

Note

You must have Company Admin permissions to create or edit user roles.

A Finance user can:

  • Place and approve orders
  • View and delete services
  • Create, view, and modify service keys
  • View financial data
  • Make payments
  • Create, edit, and delete credit card records

The Financial Contact role is similar to a Finance role, but does not have permissions to place or approve orders, delete services, or administer service keys.

A Financial Contact user can:

  • View and design services
  • View the Megaport Marketplace profile
  • View financial data
  • Make payments
  • Create, edit, and delete credit card records

  1. Visit the Megaport Portal and log in.

  2. Choose Company > Manage Users.

    The Manage Users page appears. On this page, you can view existing users, add a new user, edit existing user permissions and contact information, and reset Multi-Factor Authentication per user.
