Add Service Provider and OpCo Users

Use the Add User page or Add OpCo User page in the Administration portal to add service provider or Operating Company (OpCo) users respectively. After you add a user, the user receives an e-mail with the initial login credentials.

In the service provider scope, you can create a user and assign the following roles or a combination of roles to the user:

Service provider roles
Service provider and OpCo roles.
Service provider and tenant roles. If a user is assigned both service provider and tenant roles, then the user is a service provider user. The user can view all tenants and access tenant objects based on the access privileges assigned in the tenant roles.
Service provider, OpCo, and tenant roles. If a user is assigned service provider, OpCo, and tenant roles, then the user is a service provider user. The user can view all tenants and OpCos, and access tenant and OpCo objects, based on the access privileges assigned in the tenant and OpCo roles.

Note:

Users with the SP Operator role have read-only access to Administration Portal, Customer Portal and APIs and they cannot add new users.

OpCo roles
OpCo and OpCo tenant roles
