Manage access to FTC

Admin Group

As an FTC global administrator, you can view your associated sub-accounts and assign realms to different admin groups for better realm management.

You can create one sub-account for each of your branch administrators and each admin group, and then assign realms to each admin group.

  7. To delete a sub-admin, identify the sub-admin and click x (Delete).
