¶ Overview
The administrators' table in Administration displays a full list of all administrators using Splynx, their admin logins, full names, roles, phone numbers and other information relevant to the administrator.
You can easily filter administrators to display the list by partners using the partners filter at the top right corner of the table.
You can export via print, copy or saving the list of admins in PDF and/or CSV file formats by clicking on the export

¶ Helpdesk
By clicking on the Helpdesk icon 
in the Actions column of the table, we can change the scope of the administrators' access to tickets. The feature allows you to restrict administrators to only view/interact with tickets you wish to grant them access to.
This feature only restricts the administrator's access to tickets by your selection of the scope. It does not change any permissions you have granted to the administrator, it only narrows or broadens the scope of ticket the admin will have access to with the same permissions you have granted to the admin via the role assigned or the custom permissions you have selected for the admin.
There are 3 scopes you can assign an administrator to:
-
Global - selecting this option will give the administrator access to all tickets on the system. If the administrator is assigned to a specific partner, they will be able to see all tickets that belong to the partner. If the administrator is not assigned to a partner, they will be able to view all tickets.
-
Group - selecting this option will limit the administrator to a specific group which you will have to specify upon clicking this option. If the administrator is not assigned to a partner they will be able to view all tickets assigned to the specific group (regardless of a partner). If the administrator is assigned to a partner, they will be able to view all tickets related to the group and partner (with or without partner allocation).
- Restricted - the administrator will only be able to view tickets that have either been created by or assigned to them.
¶ Deleting an administrator
To remove an administrator account from the system, click on the Delete 
icon in the Actions column.
It is possible to view all the operations executed by each Administrator by navigating to Administration → Logs → Operations. If you click on the View details icon in the Actions column of the table you will be able to see details of each operation:
There is a way to limit the access to information for admins in Splynx by selecting only one partner, so the administrator will only be able to operate with all information associated with one particular partner. Click on the Edit icon in the Actions column and a window will appear, where it will be possible to choose one partner or the option Any to give the admin access to all the partners and their information on the system.
You can also change permissions for adding, editing or deleting partner(-s) for the particular administrator by clicking on the permissions 
icon in the Actions column. In the window that will appear, click on the Administration section, and enable or disable the Partner section and choose additional permissions of the Partner you'd like to assign the administrator to.
