AccountManager User Profile
An AccountManager User Profile contains information and settings for an individual AccountManager user. While User Profiles are typically created by Empowering Systems’ support department, users are able to modify most information on their own user profile. The “System” tab of a User Profile may only be modified by the AccountManager administrator.
