How to Change the Account Owner
Steps for the Account Owner to transfer ownership
There are a range of permissions users within smrtPhone can have, set by the Account Owner.
The structure is simple:
-
Account Owner
-
Users with different permissions
Users can have customized permissions, some of which allow for global changes, depending on what the Account Owner has granted.
There can be only one Account Owner.

Complete and submit Identity Verification
Only the current Account Owner can transfer account ownership to another user on the account.
When an Account Owner transfers ownership to a new user, they have to be sure that this user has all permissions granted in their CRMs - they have to be an Admin (or the equivalent role) with full permissions in the CRM.
