Function

Sub-accounts can facilitate different personnel to operate accounts. For example, a salesperson in charge of Listing only needs to activate permissions related to Listing; a person in charge of email customer service only needs to activate permissions such as order inquiry, Message, and Feedback.

If the main account does not grant relevant permissions to the sub-account, the sub-account cannot perform any operations.

Purpose

Assign accounts to employees for operation or operate them simultaneously in multiple locations. Sub-accounts can be operated on the same IP, computer, and line environment without any impact. Permissions are set to ensure account security, and some issues involving sub-accounts can also be appealed with better reasons.
