Define a Custom Role

The Business Portal lets you customize roles based on your requirement if predefined roles don’t meet your needs. Feature-based access control provides you a lot of flexibility and control in terms of defining the permissions. Using a custom role, you can provide access only to specific features in the Business Portal based on the scope of permissions set for each entity. Using a Custom role, you can define permission for modules like Search Transactions, API Keys, Account Balance and Activity, Virtual Terminal, Digital Invoicing, and Configurations.

Reset Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

In case of stolen or lost mobile device, a sub-user can request from the admin user to reset the 2FA in the Users menu.

Note: Only an admin user can reset the 2FA. If you are an admin and you need to reset your 2FA, please contact the Operations team for help.

  1. From the Users page, click on the user name.

  2. Click the Reset icon as shown in the below screen. This will send a new email with instructions to the email ID of the user and they can reconfigure the 2FA in the next login.

    Note: The reset icon is available only if the user already has 2FA activated.
