Profile Configuration for Admin, Billing, and Tech Contacts

Situation Changing the Admin, Billing, or Tech Contact for the Organization.
Solution You can update the profile settings to adjust who the current contacts are.

 

Establishing Contacts for Admin, Billing, or Tech roles

Each organization requires at least an Admin & Tech contact. These roles will be responsible for receiving automatic notifications regarding system alerts. The Contact Roles must be an Organization Admin or Channel Admin.

If you are attempting to delete a user that is currently assigned to one of these three roles, it will create an error stating that you cannot delete the user at this time. To correct, please assign the role to a different email and attempt to delete the user now that it does not hold the designated role.

You can find these configurations from the Profile page located under:Account Settings > Profile
